The General XP 1000 starts pulling, the wheel will not center, or you notice the front tires toed out after a run-in with a rock. By then the damage is done.<\/p>\n<p>SuperATV&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wildboaratvparts.com\/gen-xp-1000-heavy-duty-tie-rod-kit\">Polaris General XP 1000 Heavy Duty Tie Rod Kit<\/a>, available at Wild Boar ATV Parts, is a set of two tie rods built to stand up to more abuse than stock.<\/p>\n<h2>Why tie rods take a beating<\/h2>\n<p>Tie rods connect the steering rack to the wheels. They sit out in the open where rocks, stumps and ruts can hit them. Bigger tires make it worse, because they add leverage every time a tire gets pushed sideways. A stock tie rod that is fine on factory tires can bend once you go bigger and ride harder.<\/p>\n<p>A bent tie rod is more than an annoyance. It throws off alignment, wears tires unevenly, and makes the General harder to steer in rough terrain. Upgrading before one breaks keeps you from limping back to the truck with a wheel pointed the wrong way.<\/p>\n<h2>What makes these heavy duty<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Nearly 1 inch diameter tie rods<\/li>\n<li>Hardened steel monoball tie rod ends<\/li>\n<li>M14 x 1.5 threads<\/li>\n<li>Stock length replacement<\/li>\n<li>Adjustable without disassembling<\/li>\n<li>Backed by SuperATV&#8217;s lifetime warranty<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The kit includes the tie rods, chromoly tie rod ends, inner ball and sockets, boots and the hardware for installation.<\/p>\n<h2>Stock length means simple<\/h2>\n<p>Because these are a stock length replacement, they bolt on where the factory tie rods were. You do not need to change your rack or arms to run them. The design also lets you adjust them without taking them apart, which makes setting your toe after install much easier.<\/p>\n<h2>Install and alignment<\/h2>\n<p>Count the turns or measure carefully as you remove the old rods, and use that as your starting point. After installing, set your toe and take a short test drive to make sure the steering wheel is centered and the machine tracks straight. Recheck everything after the first ride.<\/p>\n<p>This kit is listed for the Polaris General XP 1000. Confirm your model and year before ordering, especially if your machine already has aftermarket arms or a different steering rack. Questions?
