Good videos. Today I looked at the 2021 Sportsman 420, virtually due to covid but they were helpful, not one bike in stock but can get it on 6 weeks. I'll make up my mind next week, Zenith Blue is what I'm after.
420 ..450, they are actually the old reliable 500 motors, they're using them up in the 450's, originally anyhow probably building fresh obviously by now. But yeah you actually get a 500 for the 450 price.
Ok guys! Update.... I decided to go with a clutch kit for the next video(s)! Don't worry exhaust still may happen....... we've got plenty of content to come!!
I'm looking at these again, I bought brand new back in 2011 and they'd at that point went from fuel injection in previous years, back to carb for the 2011 and a few years after that, then back to fuel injection again. Just a little fyi for people in the used market.
its a 4 wheeler you are totally fine with your toe adjustment, but here's a trick. Use a tape measurer, measure the distance between the tires on the front and back of the tire, adjust it until its the same
So an exhaust on it o have a 570 and been looking at the a arms to do and exhaust also do your tires run your tie rod ends I went up one tire size and and inch wider than stock and my tires barley rub with the stock wheels
After all the videos and mods that you did , was it worth it. And I'm wondering if the 850 highlifter is a easy way to go around all the work performed. Also what if your willing to say total price with all the mods ?
Total price with mods was around $7000, 1500 for the mods 5500 for the machine.Obviously not the power of an 850 though lol. A lot cheaper for sure, really the only comparable mud ready machine is the can am xmd 570 which starts at $8900. Of course prices are a little more now in 2021 compared to last year. Of course if you have the $$ the 850 highlifter is a great choice lots of power to be had.
Hey I have a 2016 sportsman 450, was wondering what year your sportsman is because on the link it doesn't show fitment for my 2016. Thanks and love the vids 👍🏻
Great! Thanks for watching!! Mine is a 2020 they should fit yours still. I believe the 2016 450 is also the same engine as the 570 and can be retuned to make it a 570. In case you want a little extra umph lol.
Went to Super Atv looked for my model 2018 sportsman450ho none. Called they don`t have a listing. I mentioned your model 2020 to them they had no idea. Which one`s did you order? SKU # they list 2 models 2 different prices. Plan on doing all mods to my 2018. Thanks for the detailed video's.
Oh man, were you able to get a bolt out at least? If you can hold a bolt on one side and undo the other. Usually if you get one bolt out you can pop one side out of the bracket and slide the arm off the rod.
@@garageforty2 nice. I put my 2 in lift on my sportsman 570 yesterday cause we’re riding this weekend. I’ve been so worried that I might break an axel with 27s, and 2in lift. That makes me feels much better!!! Great videos by the way. Thanks for the reply.
Clutch kit makes a big difference on those 450's
just bought these arms , cheers for the help with the install , 8th march 2023 💪🏻🍻🇦🇺
Thanks for watching!!
A brand in the description would be excellent!
Superatv, will do!
Good videos.

What are the most significant lift kit you can put on a 570/ 450 before you change shocks.
Not too sure but for the sportsman this 2” is the only one I could find
Bumper and winch

Hey I was wondering does this go on 2015 sportsman 570 and did u do front and back or just front
Yes fits the 570, just did the fronts.
Hey man I have all the same mods as you on my 2020 450 except for the lift have you had any issues with stock axels yet?
Still running the stock axles, surprisingly they’re still holding up. Thanks for watching!!

I hear ya man, these are the ones I got on a whim. They don’t say they are for my year but they worked! Also thanks for watching! Glad to help!
You only put front arched a-arms on? Does it not come with rear arched a-arms?
Only fronts, rears sit up higher, I haven’t found anyone that makes rears yet.
Does anyone know if those handgaurds work well?
Do you have the link by chance for the a arms?
do these add lift ? Can you run a bigger tire with these ?
no lift, but it moves the wheels an 1 1/2 '' more forward to clear up to 30''
I bought the same control arms but my stock ones wont come off as easy as yours did
Oh man, were you able to get a bolt out at least? If you can hold a bolt on one side and undo the other. Usually if you get one bolt out you can pop one side out of the bracket and slide the arm off the rod.
Do these a Arms effect the lift or just the clearance?
Just clearance
What size are you tires and rims? Looks like the back is bigger than front ones, need sizes
28x9x12 front. 28x11x12 rear
@@garageforty2 do those mayhem tires do pretty good in the mud?
Where did u get the parts from by chance?
The arms came from superatv
Looking for arched a arms.
Have you been running stock axels?
Yeah so far
