Can-Am Defender HD8 6" Lift Kit

This kit delivers a true 6 inches of suspension lift, bringing total ground clearance to about 17 inches, up from roughly 11 inches stock. That added height lets your Defender clear deep ruts, rocks, and mud that would normally stop a work‑focused machine.

You can run up to 34” tires, a major jump from the factory 27” setup. Bigger tires mean better obstacle clearance, more traction, and a more aggressive stance without sacrificing drivability.

This lift fits a wide range of Defender HD 8, HD 10, Defender MAX, and select Pro models, with year‑specific fitment options. Always confirm your exact model and year using the fitment tab before ordering.

This is a full chromoly lift kit for the Can‑Am Defender. The A‑arms, pivot blocks, and ball‑joint housings are all chromoly steel, giving unmatched durability for heavy loads, deep mud, and aggressive riding.

Yes. Every kit includes four Rhino 2.0 axles, built with end‑to‑end 4340 chromoly steel. They’re twice as strong as stock and designed to handle 40°+ CV angles without binding or overheating.

We engineered the shock angles and brackets to keep the Defender’s comfortable ride intact. The kit also preserves a tight turning radius, so it still feels manageable on trails and job sites despite the added height.

Yes. The suspension geometry increases total width by about 7 inches for better side‑to‑side stability. That wider stance helps control big tires and keep the Defender planted on uneven terrain.

Installation is involved but straightforward with detailed instructions. The kit includes front and rear A‑arms, lift brackets, Rhino 2.0 axles, heavy‑duty tie rods, extended brake lines, hardware, and preadjusted pivot blocks for proper camber out of the box.

Yes. This 6” lift disables the front and rear sway bars as part of the suspension design. This change is intentional to allow proper suspension travel at the increased height.

This kit gives you major tire clearance, extreme strength, and a smooth, controlled ride while keeping factory gearing. It’s ideal for riders who want to transform the Defender into a serious mud and trail machine.
