Kit No. XTC950
Can Am
Front lift only
Due
to the angle on the rear CV joints from the factory, Xtreme Products
does not offer any type of lift for the rear of these models. Any rear
lift will increase these angles to a level that we feel is
unacceptable.
Read
these instructions carefully. Xtreme recommends, a professional
mechanic perform the installation. Care should be taken to follow all
standard safety procedures.
A thorough inspection of the suspension should be made prior to
performing the installation. Any worn, bent or broken parts should be
replaced. After installation another inspection should be made,
checking for loose components or missing hardware. Inspect, again after
eight hours of operation.
Components:
The kit consists of two bags containing Hardware and Brackets.
Bag #1 for the Left Front
Bag #2 for the Right Front
Disassembly / Installation Procedure
1.)Begin by loosening the lug nuts on both front tires. Raise the unit, using a suitable
lifting device or procedure, until the front tires are off the ground. If using a floor jack
with stands, chock the rear wheels to prevent the unit from rolling. If using jack
stands, make sure the stands are placed under the frame and not the body. Make sure
the unit is stable and secure.
2.)Remove the tires / wheels.
NOTE: Now
is a good time to check the threads on the lug studs. Check for rust,
pulled threads or other deterioration that could cause a stud/thread
failure.
3.)Remove contents from Bag #1. This bag is for the drivers left front wheel. Looking at
the assembly sheet for bag #1 follow these instructions. Remove the upper shock
attaching bolt. Using the supplied bolt, install the links and spacer per diagram. The
bolt goes thru the factory frame, link, spacer, factory frame and the other link.
4.)
Move the shock back into place and attach to the installed links using
the supplied bolt making sure the bolt runs from front to rear. Do not
install the nut at this time.
5.) Remove the front bolt at the aluminum frame rail that runs close to the
shock, directly under the fender. Install the supplied 8mm bolt, using the factory
washer on the outside, then install the shock brace onto the bolt, placing the other end
on the bolt with the shock is installed. Install all nuts and tighten.
6.) Repeat the above steps on the opposite side.
7.) A good “Anti-Seize” compound should be applied to the lug studs and the tire/wheel
combination of choice installed. Remove all jacks, jack stands and other devices used
to lift and hold the bike. Check all brackets and bolts to be sure everything is tight.
