Shock Therapy Can-Am Maverick X3 BSD Tie Rod Kit

Our BSD™ Tie rod kit does wonders for your Can-Am Maverick X3. Through rigorous testing of our shop car, we found that the X3 RS had a lot of steering wheel feedback in the whoops. Moreover, if you are running larger tires and attempting to navigate through the whoops, the situation can become even more challenging. After cycling the front suspension we found over 4 inches of bump steer in the factory system. Furthermore, bump steer can occur as a result of changes in the toe setting, where the front of the tires move closer together or further apart than the rear of the tires during the cycle of front suspension travel.

The best set up is as close to zero toe change as possible. If your front tires change toe setting they are essentially doing the same thing as you turning the steering wheel slightly on every bump you hit. Bump steer is one of the biggest contributors to steering wheel feedback, twitchy drive ability, excessive front end wear and worn out forearms from trying to keep the car straight. So in an effort to eliminate all of these things we developed our BSD™ (bump steer delete™) tie rod kit for the X3 RS.

Our kit relocates the outer tie rod pivot point which changes the front end geometry and lowers the factory 4 inch bump steer measurement down to just 3/8 of an inch! With the bump steer removed the car is much easier to drive, steer and control. What used to be a two handed steering wheel grab to hold the car in whoops is now just a few fingers on one hand. The whole driving experience will become easier. Don’t wait, install our BSD™ Tie Rod Kit today.
