Protection that doesn't disappear into a blacked-out build. This 6-Bolt XL Radius Rod Plate for the 2017-2026 Can-Am Maverick X3 shields your vulnerable heim joints and rod bolts, reinforces your rear suspension with stainless steel sleeve inserts, and adds a built-in tow hook, all finished in a distinctive gun metal anodize that stands out against the rest of your machine. Machined from 6061 billet aluminum, bolt-on.
Suspension Protection With a Finish That Stands Out
On the Can-Am Maverick X3, the radius rod heim joints and rod bolts are some of the most exposed parts of your rear suspension, and a rock to an unprotected joint means sloppy handling or a failed rod. This 6-Bolt XL Radius Rod Plate puts a machined aluminum shield between those parts and the trail, in a finish that makes a statement instead of blending in.
The gun metal anodized finish is the difference here. Where the blacked-out version disappears into a dark build, the gun metal's lighter charcoal-metallic tone catches the light and stands apart, a distinctive look for riders who want their hardware noticed. And like all anodizing, it hardens the surface against scratches and corrosion.
Under the finish, it's all function. Stainless steel sleeve inserts strengthen the suspension connection, the plate reduces play and increases stability and handling, and a built-in tow hook gives you a solid recovery point for when you or a buddy get hung up in a bog, rut, or pit. The XL design with a 6-bolt mounting pattern provides extended coverage and secure, multi-point attachment.
It's machined from 6061 billet aluminum with a simple bolt-on installation, no cutting, no welding. It also pairs perfectly with larger aftermarket radius rods, including the high-clearance radius rods we offer, for a fully upgraded rear suspension setup.
