Black Ops Machine Can-Am Maverick Heavy-Duty Rear Shock Tower Mounting Bracket
Aggressive driving, G-outs, and heavy jump landings place immense strain on the factory rear shock mounting tabs of the Can-Am Maverick X3. Over time, these stock tabs can flex, wallow out, or crack under extreme off-road abuse. The Black Ops Machine Heavy-Duty Rear Shock Bracket is engineered to reinforce the rear upper shock mounts, preventing frame fatigue and keeping your rear suspension locked in place.
Precision CNC laser-cut and brake-formed from high-strength heavy-duty steel, this reinforcement bracket bridges and ties the factory rear upper shock mounting points together. By converting the single-shear points into a rigid, double-shear configuration, it evenly distributes rear impact energy across the upper frame structure.
Engineered as a direct, bolt-on upgrade, this rear shock tower bracket supplies essential chassis protection without requiring cutting, welding, or custom fabrication, giving hard drivers total peace of mind on dunes, desert trails, and rock crawls.
Features
- Heavy-Duty Steel Construction: Precision CNC laser-cut and CNC brake-formed from high-tensile steel for maximum structural reinforcement.
- Double-Shear Shock Mount Support: Transforms factory rear shock mounts into a double-shear layout to distribute heavy impact loads and eliminate frame tab flex.
- Prevents Tab Wallowing & Cracking: Prevents mounting holes from stretching or wallowing out under repeated suspension compression and harsh jump landings.
- Direct Bolt-On Installation: Engineered to mount directly to factory chassis locations using basic shop tools without requiring welding or custom fabrication.
- Corrosion-Resistant Finish: Features a durable protective powder-coated finish designed to resist rust, scratches, and harsh environmental wear.
Design and Construction
Designed to target known vulnerabilities in the factory X3 rear chassis, this support bracket acts as a structural bridge across the upper shock tower. The heavy-gauge steel construction absorbs massive shock loads, protecting the vehicle frame from twisting or cracking during extreme off-road use.
Handling and Performance
Eliminating rear shock tab flex helps maintain consistent shock geometry and dampening performance across full suspension travel. This rigid support improves rear-end stability through deep whoops, reduces chassis distortion in hard corners, and protects expensive rear shocks from binding or side-load stress.
Installation and Compatibility
Designed for straightforward bolt-on mounting using standard hand tools. The bracket mounts directly to factory upper shock locations and includes high-strength installation hardware to complete the job cleanly.
Why It Stands Out
A cracked or torn rear shock tab can result in costly frame repairs and stranded trail rides. The Black Ops Machine Rear Shock Tower Bracket delivers simple, race-proven chassis insurance to keep your rear suspension rock-solid under maximum off-road punishment.
