If you're looking to take your Polaris Ranger 1500 XD to the next level, look no further than Thumper Fab's Long Travel Kit. This Long Travel Kit provides greatly improved suspension geometry, larger tire clearance, and improved ride quality. Perfect for extreme trails and provide unmatched performance regardless of the terrain. Strength. Style. Great Ride!
A boxed arm will give you increased torsional strength for the strongest control arm design possible. There is more to a Thumper Fab boxed control arm than meets the eye. Underneath the steel cladding is a skeleton design that adds strength exactly where you need it and saves weight. Strength is important but unnecessary weight increases your unsprung mass and reduces your shock’s ability to compensate. The Thumper Fab design adds strength and reduces weight for optimal ride quality.
We offer professionally installed bushings and ball joints for easy installation. When you select the options below, we take the hassle out of pressing in your bushings and ball joints yourself. Utilizing our precision press operation, we are able to ensure your bushings and ball joints are correctly installed and not hammered or pressed in a way that would reduce their quality and lifespan.
Uniball – Our uniball bearing replaces the use of a ball joint for extreme levels of performance and strength. Commonly used in harsh racing conditions. Our patent pending control arm design allows you to run either a uniball or a ball joint for your desired use!
Reuse bushings and ball joints – You also have the option to reuse your OEM bushings and ball joints. Maybe your Ranger 1500 XD is brand new or in great shape. Our patent pending control arms allow the choice to reuse your OEM hardware. We do recommend professional installation and the use of a press to ensure your original equipment can be removed and installed without damage.
