Polaris Ranger Trailing Arm Conversion Guide

We all know that the stock Polaris Ranger suspension gets the job done, but what if you wanted more? More travel, more control, more of that plush, trail-hugging ride you usually find in sportier machines. That’s exactly where the Polaris Ranger trailing arm conversion steps in. If you’ve ever wished your Ranger could perform more like an RZR, this upgrade is your ticket.
