Thanks for your video...nice build. So, why do you want the front and rear wheels square? My understanding is that you want the rear spacing to be LESS than the front spacing for rollover stability. Making the front and rear square seems like it would make the vehicle more prone to rollover, particularly at speed or in an emergency maneuver. Thoughts? FYI, I talked to CFmoto rep about this and that is why the stock 1000 has a narrower wheel track in the rear. I just bought the 1000 xl and want to put 30s on it, so my thought is to add 1.5" spacers in the rear and 1" spacers in the front so that the rear track is still narrower than the front track. This would maintain the narrow wheel track in the rear since I would be gaining 2 inches in the front (assuming 30x10x14 tires all around).
I honestly didn’t look that far into it. Looking at other SxS I haven’t seen many where the rear track width is less than the front, but again, I didn’t look into it. Since I posted this video I moved the 1.5” spacers to the front and installed 2” spacers in the rear. With that, the rear is technically an inch narrower than the front. With adding and moving the wheel spacers. Lifting the machine and removing the rear sway bar, I have never felt that the machine is unstable. Thanks for watching.
No issues, I check them every 100 miles or so they don’t have play, and that aren’t noisy. Like I said in the video, as long as everything is tight there shouldn’t be any issues.
It rides a little smoother, the biggest thing is that I feel more confident driving at higher speeds, and the 3”-4” wider stance helps crawling in the trails (more stability and better chance that the tires will roll over a rock or push off a wall opposed to damaging the body). Since I posted this video I’ve moved the 1.5” to the front and installed 2” in the rear. Absolutely no negatives in adding these spacers to my machine.
There are a few gaps that aren’t sealed to the frame and there are holes that the Velcro straps go through. But, I’m not getting splashed or dripped on when riding in the rain.
I bought them from Main Street Cycle but if you Google search Moose Racing and the part number (in the video) there are other places that sell them for the same price with free shipping. Partsgiant.com is where I’ll order my next set after I install the lift.

Awesome possum. Thanks for
How are the wheel bearings holding up?
No issues, I check them every 100 miles or so they don’t have play, and that aren’t noisy. Like I said in the video, as long as everything is tight there shouldn’t be any issues.
How did you like the handling post installation?
It rides a little smoother, the biggest thing is that I feel more confident driving at higher speeds, and the 3”-4” wider stance helps crawling in the trails (more stability and better chance that the tires will roll over a rock or push off a wall opposed to damaging the body).

How about mud and water getting inside the cab??? I like that I can blast through mudy water and currently get little inside
Haven’t noticed a difference.
Does one order come with 2, or need to order 4?
The set I ordered only comes with two wheel spacers.
Does your front windshield leak

@@Averagedude247 thank you
I wonder if this kit will fit on a 2023 u force xl?
Mine is a 2022 1000XL and they use the same wheel spacers.
@@Averagedude247 right on. I want to keep my stock tire size because it's so damn expensive. This should work great. Thanks for the reply.
