Alternative Impact 36" True Clearance Chromoly A-Arm Kit with Spindles, Polaris RMK AXYS / Matryx 2016–2026 (165832187)

Product details

Alternative Impact 165832187 is a 36" ski-stance true clearance chromoly complete front a-arm kit with Alternative Impact lightweight spindles for Polaris RMK, Pro RMK and Khaos snowmobiles on the AXYS and Matryx chassis, model years 2016-2026. It replaces the factory forged aluminum arms with tubular chromoly arms and the factory spindles with Alternative Impact lightweight spindles. All standard colors are stocked by the manufacturer.

The arms use threaded rod ends at the spindle instead of welded or pressed ball joints. Alternative Impact designed this so that after an impact the rod end can usually be unscrewed, replaced with a spare and the ride continued, rather than replacing a bent arm. The manufacturer states this is not guaranteed but has worked in roughly three out of four cases. Both tubes of each arm are arched, which is what Alternative Impact calls a "true" ground clearance arm: other designs arch only the front tube and leave the rear tube straight. The upper arm is built with a wide radius so it clears any stock or aftermarket shock, including shocks with piggyback reservoirs.

Fitment. Polaris AXYS and Matryx chassis RMK / Pro RMK / Khaos, model years 2016-2026, 36" ski stance. Direct stock replacement with the same geometry as the stock 2019 850; uses the stock shocks (16.625" or 16") and the stock sway bar. Everything needed is in the box; no stock components need to be reused. Model year is not a checkout option: enter your model year in the order notes at checkout.
