The plate puts machined aluminum between those parts and the trail, reduces suspension play and gives you a solid recovery point when you or a buddy get hung up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis plate works with factory radius rods and aftermarket rods that use a 5\/8-inch Heim in the center link. Rods with a Heim larger than 5\/8-inch will not work; choose the 6-Bolt XL plate for those.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 6-bolt plate is a can am x3 radius rod plate and can am x3 pull plate in one. If you are comparing a maverick x3 radius rod plate, a can am x3 rear radius rod plate or any can am radius rod plate, match your mount pattern first: a radius rod plate only works on the bolt pattern it was cut for. It is a billet radius rod plate that protects the can am x3 rear suspension and serves as an x3 radius rod plate with tow hook. It is the standard can am x3 6 bolt radius rod plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMachined 6061 billet aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel sleeve inserts reinforce the connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShields heim joints and rod bolts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduces suspension play for tighter handling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in tow hook recovery point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack anodized finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBolt-on, no cutting or welding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6-bolt mounting pattern\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt To Solve: Exposed Radius Rod Heim Joints on the 2017-2021 Can-Am Maverick X3\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRocks damaging unprotected heim joints and rod bolts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlay in the rear suspension connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo solid rear recovery point when stuck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBest For: 2017-2021 Maverick X3 Owners Protecting the Rear Suspension\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2017-2021 Can-Am Maverick X3 owners with the 6-bolt radius rod mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRock, rut and bog riders who need a tow point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOwners running larger aftermarket radius rods should choose the 6-Bolt XL plate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCheck your bolt pattern: 2017-2021 X3 models use 6-bolt plates; 2022+ models use the 10-bolt plate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFitment: 2017-2021 Can-Am Maverick X3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting: 6-bolt pattern\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFunction: Radius rod and heim joint protection, suspension reinforcement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: 6061 machined billet aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInserts: Stainless steel sleeve inserts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Black anodized\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecovery: Built-in tow hook\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstallation: Bolt-on, no cutting or welding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRod compatibility: Factory rods and aftermarket rods with 5\/8-inch center-link Heim\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer Part Number: RRP210012\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitment\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eElektric lists this plate for the 2017-2021 Can-Am Maverick X3.
