LM UTV states the fitment as: 2014 - 2017 Polaris RZR (64″) + 4.0 in Steering Tie Rod Kit, Complete steering upgrade for the Polaris RZR with 4.0in per\/side long travel kit. The correct tie rod length depends on which long travel kit is fitted and how much width it adds per side, so confirm your per-side travel before ordering — check your long travel kit documentation or measure the car. If your kit adds 4.0in per side, this is the part number. If it adds 3.5in per side, order LMU-STR-01-07. A 2014-2017 Polaris RZR on factory front-end width needs LMU-STR-01-02 instead. For anything else, Custom lengths available by request. Fitment is not guaranteed on applications not listed here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy will my stock tie rods not work with a 4in per-side long travel kit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe knuckles sit 4 inches further out on each side, so a rod cut for the factory front end cannot reach correct toe. Winding a stock rod out to its adjustment limit leaves minimal thread engagement in the joint and loads the rod in a way it was never sized for. A rod cut to the added width is the fix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSince the long travel install my Polaris RZR wanders and the steering feels loose — is that the tie rods?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrequently, yes. Wrong-length rods change how toe behaves through the longer stroke, and worn factory ends add play on top of it. Fitting rods sized for a 4.0in per\/side long travel kit and then setting a front alignment addresses both at once.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I confirm this is the right length for my car?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGo by the long travel kit rather than the badge on the car. Confirm how much width your kit adds per side before ordering: this part number is for a 4.0in per\/side long travel kit, and LMU-STR-01-07 is for a 3.5in per\/side kit. If your kit is a different width, ask about a custom length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat are these rods made of?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 7075 Aircraft grade aluminum tie rod, 3 Piece Chromolly PTFE lined 5\/8 Heim joints, a Heat treated 4340 Chromolly inner clevis, and Heat treated 17-4 Stainless Steel hardware and spacers.

LMU-STR-01-02 is the stock-width kit for 2014-2017 Polaris RZR XP 1000 and Turbo cars plus all years of the RS1, and it is offered in machined finished or Type 2 Black Powder Coat. This part number is cut for a 4.0in per\/side long travel kit and comes in machined finished or Type 3 Hard Black Powder Coat.

Our passion for off-roading has led us to find solutions for broken or malfunctioning OEM parts and create improvements while giving the parts an impressive and attractive aesthetic. All of our parts are designed and made in the USA and come with a Lifetime Warranty. LM-UTV offers parts for both the Polaris and Can-Am's various models including tie rods, radius rods, and ball joints with more makes, models, and parts being added frequently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMatch Your 2014-2017 Polaris RZR Long Travel Front End With The Right Steering Tie Rods\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVerify the number that decides this part before you order: how much width your long travel kit adds per side. This kit is cut for 4.0in per side; a 3.5in per-side kit takes LMU-STR-01-07, a factory-width 2014-2017 car takes LMU-STR-01-02, and anything else falls under Custom lengths available by request. Then pick a finish, machined finished or Type 3 Hard Black Powder Coat. Once both rods are on, get a front alignment and check toe through the suspension stroke, because that is where long travel geometry shows itself. Alongside the steering, the front ball joints, the knuckles and the steering rack are the parts that see the load next, and a spare set of 5\/8 heim joints with stainless hardware is worth carrying on a long trip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e\n{\n  \"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n  \"@type\": \"FAQPage\",\n  \"mainEntity\": [\n    {\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Why will my stock tie rods not work with a 4in per-side long travel kit?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"The knuckles sit 4 inches further out on each side, so a rod cut for the factory front end cannot reach correct toe.
