RANSOTO 28pc Front & Rear Control Arm Bushing Kit for Polaris Sportsman 1996-2018 — Long & Short A-Arm, Self-Lubricating

RANSOTO’s 28-piece front and rear control arm bushing kit is a complete replacement set engineered to restore tight, responsive suspension for Polaris Sportsman 335–800 models from 1996–2018.

If your Sportsman has developed steering play, squeaks, uneven tire wear or a vague feel over bumps, worn A-arm and control arm bushings are often the cause. This RANSOTO kit gathers all commonly needed long and short A-arm bushings plus lower control arm units into one package, matching and replacing many OEM part numbers so you can refresh the chassis without hunting dozens of individual parts.

Which Polaris models and years will this kit fit?

This set was designed to work with a broad range of Sportsman ATVs including 335, 400, 450, 500, 570, 800 and ETX variants built between 1996 and 2018. Compatibility depends on each vehicle’s specific A-arm configuration, so check your model details before ordering.

• Fits Polaris Sportsman 335, 400, 450, 500, 570, 800 and ETX models (1996–2018)
• Covers both front and rear A-arm locations as applicable to each model
• Intended for common Sportsman model configurations, not every special edition

How does this kit compare to the original factory bushings?

RANSOTO bushings are made from high-grade, wear-resistant, self-lubricating material engineered to last longer than stock plastic pieces. They’re designed to meet or exceed OEM fit and function, aiming to reduce noise and restore original steering feel without frequent re-lubrication.

• Self-lubricating construction reduces squeaks and maintenance needs
• Higher impact and abrasion resistance for off-road durability
• Engineered to match OEM dimensions and fitment for direct replacement

What exactly is included in the 28-piece kit?

The kit supplies a full complement of bushings to address both long and short A-arms plus lower control arm locations so you can refresh the whole suspension linkage in one job. It replaces many common OEM part numbers, simplifying the ordering process.

• 8 lower control arm bushings for front/rear mounting points
• 20 A-arm long and short bushings for both left and right sides
• Replaces OEM numbers such as 5439270, 5438895, 5436972, 5434548 and others

How will installing this kit change ride quality and handling?

Installing new bushings tightens suspension tolerances, reducing play in the steering and improving predictability over rough terrain. You should notice crisper cornering response, fewer suspension noises, and more even tire wear once worn bushings are replaced.

• Reduces wheel wobble and steering slop caused by degraded bushings
• Improves chassis stability for more consistent handling at speed
• Helps prevent uneven tire wear from excessive A-arm movement

Who is this for? This RANSOTO 28-piece control arm bushing kit is aimed at Sportsman owners, DIY mechanics and service shops who want a comprehensive, cost-effective suspension refresh. Choose this kit if you own a compatible Polaris model and need to replace multiple worn A-arm and lower control arm bushings at once, whether you’re restoring ride quality, eliminating squeaks, or preparing your ATV for heavy use off-road.
