SuperATV Can-Am Defender BFT Suspension Kit
Get Big Tires
SuperATV’s BFT Suspension Kit for the Can-Am Defender gives you clearance for huge 34” tires with minimal lift. That means you can install huge tires and stay low for more stability, less weight, and less wear and tear on your axles. Where does all that tire clearance come from? BFT gives you 2” forward offset A-arms and a small 2” lift in the form of shock brackets and spring spacers.
Is it a lift kit? Is it an A-arm kit? We don’t know either, but we do know you can fit some Big Tires on it. Lock and load — your Defender just got Built for Battle.
Backed by a Lifetime Warranty
SuperATV’s BFT Suspension Kit is strong enough to come backed by a lifetime warranty. The 1-1/4” diameter DOM steel tubing makes our A-arms extremely durable. The brackets are made with CNC laser-cut steel and the spring spacers are made from billet aluminum. Ride your UTV the way you want through monster mud holes and over ridiculous rocks. If you make a mistake and crunch your suspension, we’ll replace it — forever. It’s that simple.
Choose the Right Ball Joint
Each Super Duty and Heavy-Duty ball joint comes with an easily accessible grease zerk and an adjustable steel on steel design. You can easily keep our ball joints maintained and flexible. At SuperATV, we understand the importance of strength and longevity.
Super Duty 300M Ball Joints
300M grade steel is the strongest ball joint material on the market. We took that material and combined it with our superior design engineering to make the strongest stud possible. That means minimal narrowing at the neck and an adjustable stud. At 2.25x stronger than stock, you can't buy a stronger ball joint than SuperATV’s super duty 300M ball joint.
Keller Ball Joints
Keller Ball Joints use a two-piece design that eliminates the need for a snap ring. They thread onto your A-arms like a nut and bolt, which makes these ball joints virtually impossible to pull out. The high-quality chromoly steel stud combined with an advanced tool-steel body makes them perfect for bigger machines, bigger tires, and bigger rides. And since they’re greaseable and rebuildable, you can keep them running perfectly.
Heavy-Duty Ball Joints
Our heavy-duty ball joints are designed with ultimate performance and convenience in mind. Whether you’re doing flips or chasing hills, our proprietary blend of hardened 4340 VAR steel and zinc plating means this ball joint can take it. Our tests show that our ball joint can take double the pressure of an OEM ball joint!
