Some before and after pics of 2009 Polaris 850 XP EPS





Top two pics are before, bottom two are after. (The bucket test )
16" of clearance.
Thanks to Rubberdown customs, fantastic service. Can't wait to try her on the trails.

Who the hell builds a lift kit that needs a 5 gallon bucket to hold it up? Is it just me or do others see the design flaw?

I put the bucket there to show the before and after clearance, I can now drive right over that 5 gallon bucket
That's what we call the "bucket test".

Looks great I don't think I have ever heard someone say that RD products are anything less then excellent!

Added Bonus: Little People (AKA Dwarfs) should be NO problem on the trails as well, you can ride right over them!

looks good man. Can you ride over the bucket while sitting on it?

Saddly not quite, get my fat ass on there and she squats down an inch or so.

That looks awesome dude, glad you like it, it is my favorite lift kit that I have ever designed and built so far.

Looks great and now you have me thinking about doing this again as well. Nice looking bike and great choice on rims and tires.

Nice looking bike ! Thanks: love the Maxxis Bighorns, great traction.
Where did you get the fender flare's ?

Get in on the sale and save a few $$$ for something else you might need....like RDC Bar Ends or RDC aluminum fairlead and rope or RDC Aluminum gas cap or.....

Always the salesman................

LOL, ya, I gotta wear almost all the hats

Flares are from this company http://www.direction2.com/ofspl3000.htm but they don't sell to general public so my local dealer (who is awesome for service) ordered thru Motovan I think? PM me for more details if you want?

I was waiting for warranty to be up in April but man that lift looks good I know you have shipping included with the current deal but if I drove up your way what would install run? I am not handy enough myself to be trusted with that machine.

Buttsy how are ya? I was up at the TTATV Breast Cancer ride don't know if you remember? I was the guy wearing sandals while everyone else had insulated coveralls on. That pic was taken just after I got back and unloaded.

Kinda thought that was you, but didn't recognize the bike with all the dirt!! Doin well hope you and yours are as well!!

That lift kit sure would look sick, have not purchased from RD myself but it always amazes everyone that buys from him always says "this is the best............." ever made!

Honestly, install takes a bit of time on the rear end, if the machine is really clean, I could install it for about $125, I usually charge $150 for a regular sportsman and this is about the same amount of work...let me know.



This is true, we only get good feedback, honestly. As for you not trying any of our lift kits yet, hell I got a kit for both those machines in your signature The king quad kit ios being tested next week but it has been installed and tried hgere on a machine breifly. I have 5 kits out for powder coating now and we have probably 20 Outlander kits on the shelf, that should last me a little while unless we take a few dealer orderes, which happenes sometimes and its good but man, they clean me out quick

The kits are really simple to install, I am not a mechanic by no means, and I did them myself, only took a 6 pack and 2 hrs to install.
About 1 1/2hr to do the rear and 1/2hr to do fronts.

I was just blowin smoke up your ass hopin I might get a discount or something! I've never really heard anyone say anything positive!!!

You probably won't get me on a lift kit but I want the Winch Rope upgrade for both my ATV's as well as some aluminum goodies (Gas Cap, Bar Ends)

Hopefully in the next month or so I will give you a call!
