A 6" lift changes the axle angles on a Can-Am Maverick X3, and stock-length axles aren't built for it. This Rhino X300 axle is made for the Maverick X3 6" lift kit: a longer axle with a 300M Flexshaft that twists under shock loads instead of breaking, plus oversized 300M and 4340 chromoly CV components. It's built so you can ride a lifted X3 flat out on big tires without snapping axles or tearing up the drivetrain, and it carries a 3-year warranty.
Why It's Built for Big Lifts
- 300M Flexshaft technology flexes to absorb hard impacts
- 300M and 4340 chromoly CVs for maximum strength at the joints
- Oversized CV components for demanding off-road loads
- High-temperature grease controls heat under pressure
- 3-year warranty, the best axle warranty in the industry
Flex Instead of Failure
Lifted machines on big tires put enormous torque spikes through the axles when a tire hooks up mid-air or catches a ledge. When an X300 takes a hit that would break other axles, the 300M shaft twists until the load passes and then returns to its original shape. That Flexshaft technology relieves much of the stress that would otherwise go into the CVs and differential, so critical drivetrain parts see less wear and tear.
Aircraft-Grade 300M Steel
300M is an aircraft-grade alloy steel known for high strength, a higher silicon content, and the addition of vanadium. Those properties, combined with the X300 design, are what make the axle's signature flex possible, and that flex is what makes hard riding on a big lift and big tires possible.
Bigger CVs Where It Counts
The CV, spider, and cage are all maximized in size for superior strength, and the CV components are made of 300M and 4340 alloy steel. The CVs are packed with a proprietary high-temperature grease that keeps heat under control when you're working the axle hard.
Lift Kit Compatibility
This axle only works with the Maverick X3 6" lift kit. It will not fit Maverick X3 X RS, X RC, or X MR models, and it's not compatible with anti-lock brake systems (ABS). Choose front driver side, front passenger side, or rear in the options. Axles are sold individually, so order one for each position you're replacing.
