Can-Am X3 Dual Sheer Radius Rod Plate
The DRT Motorsports Can-Am Maverick X3 Dual Sheer Radius Rod Plate is essential for any X3 build pushed hard on the trail or in the desert. This X3 dual-shear radius rod plate is made with tighter tolerances and thicker material than the factory plate — most importantly, it converts all the frame-side radius rod mounting hardware to double shear for huge rear-suspension strength gains.
Double-shear mounting prevents breaks at a common X3 failure point. The plate also includes an extra-thick gusseted tow/tie-down point so you finally have a real rear recovery anchor. Direct bolt-on, no drilling required, finished in semi-gloss black powder coat.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does "dual shear" mean and why does it matter?
Dual-shear (or double-shear) mounting supports the bolt on both sides, dramatically reducing flex and fatigue failure compared to factory single-shear mounts. It's a key strength upgrade at a known X3 rear-end failure point.
How does this differ from the billet plates and 3-piece kit?
This dual-shear plate is a steel design that changes the geometry of the radius rod mounts to double shear. The single-piece billet plates focus on thicker material and tighter tolerances. The 3-piece kit combines both approaches for maximum reinforcement.
Does it fit X3 Max 4-door?
Yes. It fits all 2017+ Maverick X3 models, both 2 and 4 door.
Is drilling required?
No. It's a direct bolt-on installation with no drilling required.
Does it add a recovery point?
Yes. The plate includes an extra-thick, gusseted tow/tie-down point for rear recovery.
Will it hold up in the dunes and desert?
Yes. Heavy-gauge steel with a semi-gloss black powder coat handles abrasive sand, mud, and impact while resisting corrosion.
