What to Look Out for When Buying Polaris ACE Radius Rods & Tie Rods?

Polaris ACE Radius Rod Types

Boxed Radius Rods

Constructed from thicker layers of steel, these rods ensure longevity even in the most challenging conditions. 

The trade-off is their added weight, which can slightly affect the nimbleness of your Polaris ACE. For those who regularly navigate tough terrains, the durability provided by boxed radius rods can be invaluable.

Tubular Radius Rods

For Polaris ACE owners seeking a balance between performance and weight, tubular radius rods made from lightweight steel or aluminum are an excellent option. 

These rods offer significant weight savings and are suitable for general off-roading activities. 

However, if you frequently tackle more aggressive terrains, you might find their durability lacking compared to heavier-duty options.

High Clearance Radius Rods

High-clearance radius rods are perfect for tackling terrains with numerous obstacles since these are designed to offer improved ground clearance, these rods help your Polaris ACE maneuver over rocks and debris with ease. 

Built from heavy-duty steel, they are durable but add weight, which might impact overall vehicle stability. For off-roaders who need extra clearance, these rods are a top choice.

Build Materials and Durability

The material of your radius rods and tie rods significantly affects their performance and longevity over the years.

First of all, steel is known for its exceptional durability, steel is a common choice for radius rods and tie rods. 

Its downside is the additional weight, which might affect the vehicle's agility.

Aluminum is lighter and offers excellent corrosion resistance, making it suitable for less intense off-roading. However, it may not be as durable as steel when subjected to significant impacts.

A middle ground between steel and aluminum, Chromoly combines durability with a relatively lightweight, making it an excellent choice for those looking for balance.

Although a premium option due to its superior strength-to-weight ratio, titanium Polaris ACE Rods might be overkill for the average user given its cost and the specialized handling required.

Tie Rod Considerations

Tie rods are crucial for connecting the steering mechanism to the wheels, making their quality vital for maintaining steering precision and responsiveness. 

For Polaris ACE, opt for tie rods that offer high strength and resilience, particularly if you engage in aggressive off-roading. 

All in all, look for tie rods with reinforced ends to prevent bending or snapping under stress. Ensuring that your tie rods are robust will significantly improve your vehicle's handling and safety.
