'14-'15 A-arms on an Axys ??

SWITCHMAN · Apr 19, 2015

Will the A-arms off a '14 or '15 RMK bolt up to a '16 RMK?
I'm contemplating a z-bros kit for my '14 Assault. Be nice if I could keep it for a future sled.
I'm guessing with the new taller spindle the geometry is different enough that it won't work.
Maybe work with '15 spindles ?

The geometry is the same but the mounting points are different so they will not bolt up unfortunately.

Damn !!
Polaris416 has a 36" Z-broz Kit w/ WE piggyback clickers for $725 in the swap meet "suspension/shocks" section.
That would work great on my '14 Assault, but I'm only keeping it one more year.

If you're referring to the '16 standard RMK, then then yes they will, but they are the steel versions, not the bonded type.

If you're referring to the Axys Pro-RMK, then no, not without modifying the a-arm to bulkhead mounts on the A-arms.

Also, for those jumping on the aftermarket A-arm bandwagon, just an FYI A-arms from the 2011-2015 Pro Ride bulkhead, modified to bolt on to the Axys bulkhead, will be 1" narrower than their advertised width.

what about rear front track shock and rear shock?

You can make them work pretty easily. Just need to modify the bushings a bit

What you do to the bushing?

Front shocks and front track shock are the same, rear track shock is different.

1" narrower, why is that?

stock/zbroz will fit...with some work

you can make the stock/zbroz aarms fit, you just have to do some manual fabing on the bushings.

I put a set of 36" on my axys and they worked fine, but I was running regular pro RMK spindles.

from the pictures I have seen of the new zbro's set up, they have the different spherical bearing on the upper aarm and should work with the axys spindles
