Product Overview
Clunks over rocks, wandering steering, uneven tire wear, or visible control-arm movement can point to worn A-arm bushings after ball joints, wheel bearings, tie rods, and mounting bolts are inspected. Replacing the full set removes play at multiple suspension pivots instead of chasing one loose corner.
Bushings cannot repair oval control-arm bores, worn sleeves, bent arms, or damaged frame tabs. Exact kit count and dimensions matter because Polaris changed suspension hardware across years and submodels.
Verify the full model name—HO, Touring, X2, or Big Boss—plus year, drive layout, original bushing numbers, and measured dimensions before disassembly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can worn bushings cause clunking? A: Yes. Pivot clearance can knock over bumps, but ball joints, shocks, wheel bearings, and loose hardware can sound similar.
Q: Will this tighten an oval control arm? A: No. Damaged bores or arms must be repaired or replaced.
Q: Does it fit every Sportsman 500 or 800? A: No. Submodel, year, bushing dimensions, and kit quantity must match.
Q: Is this an original-equipment part? A: No. This is a new aftermarket product. Brand names and part numbers are used only to identify compatible applications.
