How to Strengthen the Front End of Your Can-Am Maverick R

How to Strengthen the Front End of Your Can-Am Maverick R

S3 Power Sports    Aug 21st 2025

The Can-Am Maverick R was born to be pushed to the edge, and stock suspension parts just can’t keep pace. That’s why the S3 Power Sports Upper A-Arms are built from 1.75” x .120-wall chromoly tubing and designed for riders who refuse to back off. Stronger, smarter, and race-proven, these arms bring stability, steering precision, and serious confidence to one of the most capable UTVs on the market.

What Stock Uppers Can’t Handle

  • Desert speed runs? OEM arms flex and throw your geometry off.
  • Deep ruts? Factory hardware twists instead of holding line.
  • Hard landings? Stock steel takes the hit and starts to give way.
  • Big tires? Clearance and rigidity disappear just when you need them most.

When you start pushing the R the way it was meant to be driven, OEM parts hold you back. These are the moments S3 Upper A-Arms were built to fix.

Race-Proven Strength

Each set is crafted from oversized 1.75” x .120 chromoly tubing with precision-machined pivot points. The design keeps steering tight, suspension geometry locked in, and shocks free to do their job. Whether you’re running factory 2.5 shocks or stepping up to the popular 3.0 front shock upgrade, these arms fit the setup without compromise. It’s the kind of upgrade that transforms feel and control without hacking, welding, or guesswork.

Complete the Front-End Package

On their own, uppers add strength and stability you can feel instantly. But paired with the S3 Maverick R High Clearance Lower A-Arms , you unlock the full front suspension upgrade. The lowers push the hub line clear of obstacles while the uppers lock down geometry and rigidity. Together, they deliver a desert-ready, race-tested front end that takes the fight out of the terrain.

No Gimmicks. Just Real Hardware.

These arms are built to be bolted on and beaten on. CNC-cut, precision-bent, and finished with aggressive styling that looks as good as it performs, every detail is engineered with purpose. Made in the U.S.A. and backed by the S3 Lifetime Structural Warranty, they deliver more than durability — they deliver peace of mind lap after lap, ride after ride.
