SuperATV Rhino 2.0 big lift kit axles are extended-length front and rear axles for the Polaris Ranger XP 1000 and Crew (2017-2023) and the Ranger 1000 Diesel and Diesel Crew (2015-2018) running SuperATV's 6" lift kit. Maximized shafts and CVs in heat-treated 4340 chromoly handle 40°+ axle angles without binding or overheating, so your Ranger can be the work horse and the trail machine it was built to be.
SuperATV states these axles only work with its Polaris Ranger XP 1000 6" Lift Kit and Polaris Ranger 1000 Diesel 6" Lift Kit. SuperATV also points to the high twist yield of 4340 steel: the shaft is designed to flex and return rather than pass the shock to the differential. They are sold individually: choose Front or Rear, your edition (Standard, Crew, High Lifter, NorthStar, Back Country, Texas, Trail Boss, Waterfowl, Big Game or Diesel) and the model-year bracket, because SuperATV uses different axles across those years.
These Ranger XP 1000 lift kit axles are the Ranger XP 1000 big lift kit axles SuperATV sizes for its own kit, also searched as Ranger XP 1000 6 inch lift axles. They cover Ranger Crew XP 1000 lift axles, Ranger XP 1000 High Lifter lift axles and Ranger 1000 Diesel lift kit axles, sold as the Ranger XP 1000 front axle lift version or the Ranger XP 1000 rear axle lift version. For Polaris Ranger XP 1000 lifted axles, these Rhino 2.0 lift kit axles are the chromoly option.

Will they work with another brand of lift kit?
SuperATV states they only work with its Polaris Ranger XP 1000 6" Lift Kit and Ranger 1000 Diesel 6" Lift Kit.
Do they fit the Ranger Crew XP 1000?
Yes. Every listed edition is offered in 2-seat and Crew versions. Select your edition and year bracket so you receive the correct axle.
Do they fit the Ranger 1000 Diesel?
Yes, the 2015-2018 Ranger 1000 Diesel and Diesel Crew with SuperATV's 6" lift kit.
Do they work with ABS?
No. SuperATV lists these axles as not compatible with Anti-Lock Brake Systems (ABS).

Why SuperATV
SuperATV designs, engineers, manufactures and tests its Rhino 2.0 axles in-house, using CAD analysis, lab testing and real-world trail testing before release. Every Rhino 2.0 axle is backed by SuperATV's 18-month warranty, longer than the one-year norm SuperATV cites for the industry.
Complete Your Lifted Ranger XP 1000 Build
Confirm your Ranger has SuperATV's 6" lift kit and no ABS, then choose front or rear, your edition and your model-year bracket. Lifted machines are harder on ball joints and tie rods, so check those with the axles.
