CT Race Worx Can-Am Maverick X3 64" Billet Proof Lower Radius Rods
The CT Race Worx Maverick X3 64" Billet Proof Lower Radius Rods represent the pinnacle of high-clearance suspension engineering for the Maverick X3. Built specifically for riders who demand the strongest aluminum linkage in the sport, these lower rods provide over an inch of additional ground clearance compared to stock components. Each rod is precision-machined in the USA from 7075-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, an alloy renowned for being roughly twice as strong as the industry-standard 6061. Unlike 6061, 7075-T6 offers superior "memory" and flexibility, allowing it to deflect up to 10% during a massive impact and spring back to its original shape—a characteristic that makes it the material of choice for aircraft wings and Trophy Truck suspension links.
The engineering focus of these rods is to eliminate the "weak link" found in factory and inferior aftermarket designs. The high-stress area surrounding the uniballs is reinforced to handle the tremendous pull forces experienced during harsh bottom-outs. By using solid billet 7075-T6 instead of threaded links, CT Race Worx prevents the threads from stretching, compressing, or pulling out over time, ensuring the joints remain tight and play-free. Each rod is equipped with top-tier FK 5/8" WSSX uniballs, the same series relied upon by professional Trophy Truck teams, and finished with in-house machined 303 stainless steel misalignment spacers for maximum corrosion resistance and a play-free fit.
Here are some basic strength differences between 6061 and 7075 aluminum and how much stronger CT Race Worx's lower radius rods are being made from 7075.
6061 Aluminum vs 7075 Aluminum
