Product Overview
Factory ATV racks have a flat loading surface, but gear can shift when the machine is moving over rough ground. A front extender forms a perimeter and provides more places to secure a load.
Part #2879716 is the four-inch front rack extender for the matching Sportsman rack setup. This is an aftermarket alternative for the matching rack layout, not a genuine Polaris accessory.
