Stock tie rods on the X3 are a known weak point in the steering, especially in desert and dunes. DRT's kit replaces them with precision-machined 6061-T6 billet rods. It keeps the OEM clevis to preserve factory fitment and steering geometry, and it clears the steering and suspension parts at full droop and full compression.

Who It's For and What Pairs Well
For X3 owners running fast desert or dune terrain. Pair it with the DRT Can-Am Maverick X3 2017+ 72" Billet Hex Bar Radius Rod Kit.
Installation Notes
Fully bolt-on. Count the turns as you remove each OEM tie rod or rod end and copy that length so the toe stays close, then get a full alignment before you drive hard. After install, confirm every jam nut is tight and set with thread locker, and paint-mark each nut so movement is easy to spot. Inspect the jam nuts before every ride.
