Can-Am left the rear radius rod mount as one of the weakest parts of the X3 chassis, and the 2022 and newer cars are not exempt. This LM UTV rear radius rod plate reinforces the rear chassis and adds strength to that area on 2022+ Can-Am Maverick X3 models, spreading rod load across a plate machined from 6061 rather than concentrating it in factory sheet metal.
It goes on as a direct bolt on replacement, comes machined finished, black powder coat or custom colors, and accepts accessories — tow hooks, hitch receiver, cage mounts, and a removable custom logo plate that closes off unused holes.

Built To Solve: A Weak Rear Radius Rod Mount On The 2022+ Can-Am Maverick X3
- A mount that folds after a hard landing. Rear rod load funnels into one small area of the chassis, and that area deforms before anything else does.
- Bolt holes that elongate. Once they egg out, the rods move under load and rear alignment will not stay where you set it.
- Rods that pay for the mount's failure. A deformed mount loads the rod off-axis, and the rods are usually the next parts you buy.
- Fabrication instead of a bolt-on fix. Reinforcing the area first is a much smaller job than repairing a torn mount in the field or on a lift.
- Accessory mounting with nowhere solid to hang it. Tow hooks, a hitch receiver and cage mounts all want a strong plate to attach to.
Best For: 2022 And Newer Can-Am Maverick X3 Owners On 64" And 72" Cars
- Maverick X3, X3 64, X3 72 and X3 Max owners on 2022 and newer machines
- Dune riders landing the rear end through steep faces and transitions
- Desert and high-speed riders taking repeated impacts through the rear suspension
- Owners running upgraded rear radius rods who want the mount to be as strong as the rods
- Riders adding tow hooks, a hitch receiver or cage mounts at the rear of the car
- 2017-2021 X3 owners: this is not your plate. LM UTV builds a separate rear radius rod plate that fits all X3 models 2017-2021 — order that one instead, the two are not interchangeable
- Polaris RZR owners need a RZR pull plate or radius rod plate rather than an X3 plate

FAQ
Will this fit my 2019 Maverick X3?
No. This plate is for the 2022+ models and fits all 2022 and newer X3 models. For a 2017 through 2021 car, LM UTV makes a separate rear radius rod plate that fits all X3 models 2017-2021 — that is the one to order.
What problem does this plate address?
The rear radius rod mount is one of the weakest parts of the X3 chassis. Under repeated hard landings it can tear, elongate its bolt holes, or fold, and once the mount is out of shape the rear geometry goes with it. The plate spreads that load across a larger area.
Does it cover the 64in, 72in and Max cars?
Yes. LM UTV lists it as fitting all 2022 and newer X3 models, which covers 64in and 72in widths and the four-seat X3 Max.
How does it install?
It is a Direct bolt on replacement, so no cutting or welding is required.
What accessories can I run with it?
Tow hooks, a hitch receiver, cage mounts and custom logo plates are listed as available accessories. The removable logo plate provides a clean finished look without exposed, unused holes.
What is it made from and what finishes are offered?
It is Machined from 6061 and offered machined finished, black powder coat or custom colors.
Why LM UTV
LM UTV builds chassis reinforcement around specific OEM weak points rather than generic bracketry, which is why this plate exists as two distinct part numbers split at the 2022 model year instead of one part sold as universal. It is Machined from 6061, Made in USA, and set up to carry tow hooks, a hitch receiver, cage mounts or a removable logo plate depending on how you use the car.
Get The Right X3 Plate For Your Model Year
Confirm the year on your Can-Am Maverick X3 before you order: this plate is for 2022 and newer cars, and 2017-2021 machines take the other plate. Once the year is right, choose your finish and decide which accessories you want mounted to it. If new rear radius rods are on your list too, put the plate on first — the mount is what the rods bolt into.
