Boost Power with a Can-Am Defender Transmission Gear Reduction Kit
Get more torque and better control with a Transmission gear reduction kit for your Can-Am Defender. Whether you ride in mud, rocks, or steep hills, this upgrade helps your machine handle tough terrain with ease.
Why You Need a Gear Reduction Kit
Bigger tires and rough trails can put stress on your UTV. A gear reduction kit helps fix that by:
Giving you more low-end power
Making throttle response quicker
Reducing wear on your clutch and belt
Helping your Defender move smoother at low speeds
Improving control on rocks, hills, and deep mud
This kit is perfect for riders who want more strength and better performance.

Each gear reduction kit includes:
Strong, steel gears
Heavy-duty bearings
Clear step-by-step instructions
Fitment for many Can-Am Defender models
Choose Your Gear Ratio
Pick the reduction level that fits your riding style:
12% Reduction – Good for trail riders with tires up to 30″
25% Reduction – Great for mud and moderate climbs
30–40%+ Reduction – Best for very big tires (32″+), deep mud, or heavy loads

These gears are made from strong steel and built to last. They’re tested in real off-road conditions. That means you can ride hard and not worry about your transmission.
