    for polaris you can do +3, +4 and +8 axles just like the RZR. It would be best to find out from gorilla what that carry for them. HRT has done a few rangers, and I believe we did +3 for them. it has been a while. personally I would get Sommers brothers axles and use stock cv's, no issues. 4340 front's and 300m rears. There a peeps that make extensions for the tie rods, or all new pieces, any company that does UTV suspension should have them for a particular witdh kit.

    good luck

    Polaris uses lots of the same parts on different machines. The rzr billet hubs may fit. HRT build great stuff.

    Contact XtremeMF.com and talk to scott. They make a bolt on LT kit for the Ranger. He could probably help answer most of your questions over the phone.
