LM UTV states the fitment as: 2018+ Polaris RZR Turbo S (72″) Steering Tie Rod Kit, Complete steering upgrade for the Polaris RZR. This is the Turbo S 72-inch part number only. The 64-inch cars — Polaris RZR XP 1000, RZR XP 4 1000, RZR XP Turbo and RZR XP 4 Turbo — take a different kit, and so does the RS1.

It sets the wrong front toe on that side, which shows up as a pull and as scrubbed inside tire edges.

The XP 1000 and XP Turbo are 64-inch cars and take their own kits — LMU-STR-01-02 for 2014-2017 cars and the RS1, LMU-STR-01-03 for 2017.5-2020 cars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat are the rods, joints and hardware made of?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rod is a 7075 Aircraft grade aluminum tie rod.

This kit is sized for the factory 72-inch Turbo S front end. The long travel kits are sized to a specific per-side long travel increase — 3.5in per side on LMU-STR-01-07 and 4.0in per side on LMU-STR-01-08 — and are the right choice only if you have actually fitted a long travel kit of that width.

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\u003eUpgrade The Steering On Your 72-Inch Polaris RZR Turbo S\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConfirm you are on a 2018 or newer Turbo S on the 72-inch chassis rather than a 64-inch XP car, then choose your finish, machined finished or Type 3 Hard Black Powder Coat. If your front end is not stock width, say so when you order, because Custom lengths available by request. After install, get a front alignment so toe is actually set with the new rods, and think about where the load travels next: the steering rack, the front ball joints and the knuckles all see what the old tie rod used to give up. The matching Turbo S 72-inch radius rods and a spare set of 5\/8 heim joints are the companion parts worth having on hand.\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 does the tie rod bend first on a Polaris RZR Turbo S?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"It is the smallest-section piece in the steering path, so when the front wheel takes a hit the rod deforms before the rack or the knuckle does.
