Quick Power Gains: Intake, Filtration, Exhaust
Intake/exhaust tweaks usually make the biggest difference for everyday riding and trail work.
Intake/Filter Upgrades for Quick Results
High-flow intakes and quality filters help your engine breathe. That improves throttle response and smooths delivery.
American Off-Roads shows model-by-model fitment so you get parts that match your atv utv. If you have questions, our team can advise quickly with model-specific tips.
Exhaust Options Tuned for Torque & Tone
Match an exhaust that suits your riding style. Pick torque-tuned systems if you tow or haul or favor steep climbs.
Consider matched intake/exhaust kits for balanced gains and easier installs. Always check fuel mapping and keep filters clean in dusty conditions.
- High-flow intakes and filters improve throttle feel and consistent power on varied terrain.
- Choose exhausts balancing torque, tone, and compliance for long days.

| Air Filter | Consistent delivery | With intake |
| Exhaust System | Torque and tone | Post-intake |
See & Be Seen: LED Lighting
A well-planned lighting setup boosts visibility and reduces on-trail fatigue.
Pick lighting for your terrain and pace. American Off-Roads stocks reliable LED bars, compact LED pods, and mounting kits to help you install cleanly. Our team can advise on mounts, harnesses, and compatibility so your build remains clean and reliable.
LED Bars, Pods & Mounting
Pick LED light bars for wide, long-range coverage and pods for tight spots. Mounts vary—front bumper plates, A-arm mounts, and roof brackets are common choices. Place lights to shield lenses from brush and impacts.
Night Trail Riding: Brighter Beams, Safer Runs
Match beams to terrain: spot = distance, flood = near spread, combo = mixed routes. Proper lighting improves reaction time and cuts fatigue on long night runs.
LED Install & Wiring Basics
Verify amp draw, use a relay harness, and use weatherproof connectors. Keep cables clear of pinch points and carry spare fuses. Check local rules for auxiliary lights before on-road use.
- Choose efficient light bars and compact pods to save battery draw.
- Evaluate spot, flood, and combo beams for your typical trails.
- Pair lights with mirrors and skid plates for better situational awareness.
- Watch for sale bundles that include bars + mounts + harnesses.
| Type | Ideal Use | Typical Feature |
|---|---|---|
| Full-length light bars | High-speed open trails | Long throw spot or combo beams |

| Mounting kits & harnesses | Clean multi-model installs | Relays, weatherproof connectors, fuse holders |
Protect the Machine: Skids, A-Arm Guards, Bumpers
A rugged underbody package adds confidence on rocky lines and overgrown trails.
American Off-Roads helps you choose underbody armor and bumpers that fit your atv and the terrain you ride most. Riders regularly see durability gains after installing full underbody kits and A-arm guards.
Full-Coverage Skids for Rough Terrain
Choose full-coverage plate kits to shield the frame, differentials, and mounts. Look for recessed hardware and formed edges so the plates slide smoothly instead of snagging.
Brush guards and bumpers for impact protection
Add front and rear bumpers to deflect brush and cushion slow impacts. Pair bumpers with A-arm guards and rock sliders for the broadest coverage.
- Armor is insurance: skids and A-arm guards shield vital parts from rocks and ruts.
- Consider UHMW for light weight or aluminum for durability based on terrain.
- Verify fitment, re-check hardware torque after the first rides, and pair with handguards.
| Item | Benefit | Best Use |
|---|---|---|
| Full skids | Frame and differential protection | Rocky trails |
| A-arm guards | Protect suspension parts | Technical lines |

Get the Stance and Clearance You Need: Lift Kits and Wheel Spacers
Thoughtful lift + spacer choices can improve line choice through ruts and rocks.
Lift kits and wheel spacers change clearance and track width so your vehicle handles obstacles with less drama. American Off-Roads offers kits and spacers curated for reliable fitment across Polaris, Can-Am, Honda, Yamaha, CFMoto, and more.
Lift kits for clearance and bigger tires
Lifts add belly room and tire clearance so your vehicle skims ruts instead of hanging up on obstacles.
Quality kits come with clear instructions and hardware, making weekend installs realistic with basics. After install, check torque specs after a few rides since fasteners may settle.
Spacers for Stability & Feel
Spacers widen the track for a more planted feel, improving confidence in off-camber and technical climbs.
Choose spacer thickness and lift height that complement tire size to preserve steering feel and CV angles. Consider stronger damping if added leverage from stance/tires.
- Pair lifts with skid upgrades to maintain skid coverage at new height.
- Confirm atv utv fitment for your year and trim to avoid alignment surprises.
- If you haul or tow, balance lift goals with load stability and braking performance.
| Choice | Benefit | When to Install |
|---|---|---|
| Lifts | More clearance for larger tires | When you need belly room |
| Spacers | Wider stance, better stability | For technical or off-camber terrain |
| Matched kits | Matched fitment and hardware | Weekend installs with common tools |
Handling & Comfort: Suspension and Add-Ons
Good suspension tuning plus cockpit tweaks keep you fresher on long trails.
Suspension tuning is the fastest way to improve control and comfort, especially after adding weight or bigger tires. Choose shock kits or springs matched to your terrain/load—solo, two-up, or with cargo.
Add seat cushions, bar risers, and handguards to cut fatigue and keep confident steering inputs. Minor tweaks help you hold form and ride longer without arm pump.
- Stiffen or soften damping to fit speed and surface so tires stay planted for better traction/braking.
- Blend small-bump comfort with bottom-out control for a balanced, predictable chassis.
- Service shocks/bushings on schedule to preserve crisp handling.
