Product Information
Take the front end of your ride to the next level with the SuperATV Rhino 2.0 Front Axle Pair for Polaris RZR – a heavy-duty front axle set engineered to handle the abuse that routinely snaps stock units. Forged from heat-treated 4340 chromoly steel with a 4mm larger shaft diameter, these Polaris RZR front axles deliver up to twice the strength of OEM, with maximized CV joints built to survive the extreme angles that come with lift kits, big tires, and aggressive driving.
A Bigger, Stronger AxleYour Polaris RZR XP 1000 is one mean machine – but can the factory front axles really hold up to the kind of beating you put them through? If you've sent your RZR through the ringer a time or two, odds are you've already had a stock axle let you down. That's exactly why SuperATV built the Heavy-Duty Rhino 2.0 Axles. Whether you're replacing a busted-up set or getting ahead of the problem before it leaves you stranded, Rhino 2.0s let you ride hard without sitting in the back of your head worrying about what's going to snap next.
The Rhino 2.0 Formula – Better Materials, Better DesignWhen the SuperATV engineering team started working on the Rhino 2.0, they didn't just tweak a few small things and slap a new sticker on the box. Every inch of the axle got reworked from the ground up. Larger axle shafts paired with all-chromoly steel construction deliver up to twice the strength of stock. The maximized CV joints handle steep articulation angles and stay cooler under load, no matter how hard you're driving. The result is a true heavy-duty UTV axle built for the worst conditions you can throw at it – all thanks to the Rhino 2.0 formula:
- A massive 4mm increase in shaft size
- End-to-end chromoly construction
- Proprietary heat treatment
SuperATV brings over 10 years of axle and suspension know-how to the Rhino 2.0 – the next generation of their flagship axle line. What can up to 100% stronger do for you? It gives you the confidence to tackle the roughest terrain without that nagging worry in the back of your head every time you hit the throttle. Rhino 2.0 stands out in the heavy-duty axle segment thanks to its combination of maximized CV joints, larger shaft diameter, and SuperATV's proprietary mix of materials and heat treatment. Each axle is precision-engineered with state-of-the-art CAD technology and tested against real-world scenarios – 80+ mph desert racing, monster-tire mud runs on lifted machines, and full-tilt rock crawling. The result is an axle that requires no break-in period and won't fail from heat buildup or metallurgical issues.
Designed, Built, and Tested in Madison, IndianaSuperATV axles are designed, manufactured, and tested right at SuperATV's facilities in Madison, Indiana – so when you bolt on a set of Rhino 2.0s, you're buying straight from the source. And it's a source worth trusting. SuperATV has invested millions into top-tier CAD technology and runs Rhino 2.0s through extensive lab and real-world field testing before any set ever ships. That's how they're able to deliver one of the toughest heavy-duty Polaris RZR XP 1000 front axles on the market.
Backed by an 18-Month WarrantyYou can't sell an axle this serious without a warranty to match. SuperATV blows past the industry norm with an 18-month warranty, so you can actually put these things to work without second-guessing it. Odds are you won't be able to break them – but if you do, SuperATV has you (and your Rhino 2.0s) covered.

This listing covers two different front axle part numbers – make sure you select the correct one for your machine.
AX01-005F0 Pair (Front):- Polaris RZR XP 1000: 2014–2023

- Polaris RZR XP 1000 High Lifter Edition: 2016 Only
- Will NOT fit Polaris RZR Turbo S (2018+)
- NOT compatible with Anti-Lock Brake Systems (ABS)
- May require minor grinding for proper fitment on RZR XP Turbo models – review SuperATV's installation instructions before starting
- Source data shows conflicting High Lifter Edition year ranges. SuperATV's manufacturer copy lists "2015–2023" for the overall Rhino 2.0 lineup, while the AX01-005F0 listing data shows "2015–2016" for the High Lifter. We've reconciled this against the broader SuperATV-listed range and current Polaris production records – verify against your specific machine before ordering.
- The RZR XP/XP 4 Turbo platform ended production in 2021 (replaced by the Pro XP), so the correct cutoff is 2016–2021, not "2016+".

What makes Rhino 2.0 front axles better than stock RZR XP 1000 axles? Rhino 2.0 axles are built from end-to-end 4340 chromoly steel with noticeably larger CV components than OEM. They're engineered to handle higher torque loads, hard-charging riding styles, and the extreme front-end CV angles that routinely snap stock axles in half.
Will Rhino 2.0 front axles fit my Polaris RZR XP 1000? Yes – Rhino 2.0 front axles are purpose-built for the Polaris RZR XP 1000 platform with model-year-specific fitment. There are two different front part numbers (AX01-005F0 and AX01-004F0), so make sure you select the right one for your machine. They're a common requirement on lifted machines and DYNAMIX-equipped units due to the increased CV angles up front.
Are Rhino 2.0 axles required when running a lift kit? On many DYNAMIX setups and high-angle suspension builds, yes – Rhino 2.0 axles are needed to keep things from over-binding and failing early. Their design supports safe operation at 40°+ CV angles, which is well beyond what stock axles can reliably handle.
How much stronger are Rhino 2.0 axles compared to OEM? A lot stronger. With a larger shaft diameter and maximized CV joints, plus upgraded materials and a proprietary heat treatment, impact resistance and lifespan both jump dramatically. Strength gains vary by model, but they can run up to 100% over stock.
Can Rhino 2.0 front axles handle aggressive riding and big tires? Absolutely. These axles are made for oversized tires, lift kits, and the kind of mud and trail abuse that wrecks weaker axles. Power delivery stays smooth even when you're hard on the throttle and the front suspension is fully articulated.
How does the CV joint design improve durability? The CVs use maximized spiders and cages, which spread torque more evenly across the joint and cut down on internal stress. That's what lets them keep working at steep suspension angles without overheating, binding, or grinding themselves apart.
Is installation difficult for Rhino 2.0 front axles? Not really – installation is on par with a standard OEM axle swap, using normal hand tools. SuperATV includes detailed instructions. Just note: RZR XP Turbo models may require minor grinding for proper fitment, so review the install instructions before you get started.
Do Rhino 2.0 axles affect ride quality or handling? Nope. They're engineered to deliver smooth power transfer and factory-like ride feel. You get the added strength and reliability without picking up any new vibration or drivability quirks.
Do Rhino 2.0 axles require a break-in period? No. Thanks to SuperATV's proprietary materials and heat treatment process, these axles are ready to run hard right out of the box – no break-in needed and no risk of metallurgical failure from heat buildup.
What warranty does SuperATV offer on Rhino 2.0 axles? Every Rhino 2.0 axle is backed by an industry-leading 18-month warranty – a clear sign that SuperATV stands behind how these things hold up under hard riding.
Why choose SuperATV Rhino 2.0 axles over other heavy-duty options? Rhino 2.0 axles are lab- and field-tested, designed specifically with high-angle use in mind, and trusted in SuperATV's own lift kits. Between the chromoly construction, oversized CVs, American manufacturing, and proven track record, they're built for riders who don't lift just to cruise.
⚠ Important Warning: This product can impact machine operation. The customer and/or user is responsible for ensuring compatibility with their machine as currently configured, proper installation, and understanding any impact this product may have on the machine's operation.
Stop replacing broken stock front axles after every ride – bolt in SuperATV's Rhino 2.0 Front Axle Pair and ride harder, longer, and with total peace of mind.
