Five Need To Know Facts About ATV Lift Kits

By Thelma Kent


An ATV is a vehicle which is used for adventurous activities. This vehicle is designed to suit all kinds of terrain, be it rocky, stony or muddy ground. These are used during racing and other recreational riding. However, to have a smooth ride, the ground clearance of the car has to be good. The ATV lift kits are designed to adjust the height of vehicle, making your ride convenient in all kinds of terrain.

It is easy to use the kit and avoid the damage done to the vehicle. They not only improve the working but also the efficiency of the car. Depending upon the raise it gives to the vehicle, they are broadly of three types. The normal lift kit gives a rise of two inches and the extreme can raise it up to twenty one.

This reduces the damage to the car that is caused by challenging and tough trails. It elevates the car, thus gaining more ground clearance. It also protects the engine from water, mud and other harsh elements and obstacles of the road. This enables a quick navigation on off roads and watery trails.

Due to approximate two inches rise in the vehicle on an average, the wheels are replaced by the bigger ones. This results in giving an additional raise of about four inches making the ride even smoother on off roads. The extreme types may increase the height by about twenty one inches.

At the same time by using these kits the center of gravity of the car increases, making it unstable at more speed. The elevated cars can be dangerous when driven on normal roads and cause accidents also. Such cars are suited for sports competition and not for driving on highways.

ATV lift kits are manufactured by many firms. It is always better to check the quality and price before purchasing them. A poor quality material may not be long lasting and can even breakdown anytime.
