Product Overview
Ridge 1000 HD Rear Hub Bushings
Fits:
All years and models Ridge 1000
This is a premium rear hub bushing assembly designed to outlast the machine itself. The factory rubber bushings allow tire wobble, resulting in unstable handling and excessive tire wear.
Unlike UHMW bushings, which work well in A-arms with long spans, these bushings use high-grade bearing bronze that can absorb heavy impacts without deforming in the short hub span.
Portal Owners:
These fit SATV portal plates. We highly recommend using our larger hardware option.

Hub Bolt Options:
OEM-Size Bolt

Perfect for the average rider
-
Reuses factory rear hub hardware

Large Bolt
-

-
Based on our experience with Teryx 800 and Mule portal setups, the factory bolt is simply too small to handle the added load, regardless of bolt grade or thread pitch.

Requires drilling the A-arm tabs to 1/2"
-
A step bit is recommended for a clean, precise hole
-
Eliminates concerns about breaking hub hardware
