ive lurked around here on forum for a few years , and never really posted , I have a 2013 ranger 500 efi, looking to buy a 2" lift kit . My question is , can I buy one that I will not have to buy longer axles. Also any recommendation for a rear seat for the back , so my kids can ride with me and the wife​

Some say Yes, some say no..Seems to be a varying answer from machine to machine. Id suggest EV springs, or make spring spacers. However, alot of ppl prefer SATV lifts, Highlifter, and Marshal MotoArt kits.

I personal advice satv

I have a Super ATV 3" lift. Very well made. I didn't need longer axles, but It's not a 500.

Well that don't really help with his question does it?!

I've lifted every ranger I've had 2", never had an axle length issue.

I have the Mashall Motoart 2.5" lift on my full size machine and I didn't have to have longer axles.

Guys this is the midsize section, your suspension has nothing to do with ours

gonna do pvc coupler lift I read about , thanks will and wagz , is the front or rear axles the ones that tend to pop out considering ordering a set .

 

[will_reed]

I never had any issues with the rear axles, only the front.

But everyone didn't have the front issue if I remember correctly.

If it's going to come out, it seems to always be the front passenger side. I had a buddy that ran a 2" lift on his 450 for several years with no problem then he let the suspension droop one day and out it came. I had to weld up his diff because the axle ate a hole in it before he realized what it was. Just one of those "can't make it happen twice" things.

What is the biggest tire you can run with just a 2" lift with the forward a arms? If you do use a arms does it add lift also? Thanks.

 

[littlebigrancher]

Just 2" lift and forward a arms you can run up to 31s. And no a arms don't add lift
