With the Super ATV lift I am running 28-9-12 Front and 28-11-12 Rear Mega Mayhems. I put it thru the paces here and I got no rubbing and no noticeable loss of power!!!
Are you happy with the Super ATV lift and are you still running your stock axles?

Thank you for the welcome. Do you run your machine hard? No EPS, How is the steering with the bigger tires? Did you lose power?

Yes the trails are hard here, shocks will bottom out with no rubbing. I don't have EPS and it steers fine with no noticeable loss in power.

Thanks I appreciate the info. I had my 2014 Pioneer 700-2 Camo for a year now and I think it is time to jazz it up a little with no loss of performance. When I bought it all I did to it was add A-Arm guards and a hard top. So I want to lift it now and add bigger tires to it.

I just installed the Mudbuster fender extensions on my 700-4, and the 27" front tires now rub at full turn. Just a FYI. I wouldn't want to ride it without the fender extensions though.

@Wingnurse32 did you get the mud flaps as well? Reason I ask is that Chad "Mudbusters" recommended that I didn't get them with my 27 Megas. Im eventually going to get a set but as of right now I have zero rubbing but I also have a Super ATV lift as well.

I like it a lot, @bobbyhill has commented on his a few times and that is the main reason I chose SuperATV for mine. I went with the Megas as well but I decided to go with 27's for I use mine to mainly work in the woods all summer and hunt during the winter, plus I'm a big ITP fan and 589's served me well and for a very long time on my old foreman. The reason I got the lift was to get more clearance and chose the 27's because I really just didnt need/want a 28. I will say that I measured my 27's before I mounted them and they were right at 27" maybe just shy. 27x9x14 and 27x11x14.

I did get the ones with mud flaps but I didn't really understand the difference until I'd already ordered them. I agree with Chad. If ever need more they won't have mud flaps. I like the way the other looks better.

@swsebeck it does take a little time to put it on, the front wasn't too difficult at all, I dont think it was mentioned in the instructions and I may have done something wrong but I found that disconnecting the silver arms from the swaybar made it a lot easier to mount the rear shocks to the new mounts.

+1 on that and i had to use a long pry bar to push down on the A-arm on the rear ( i had no help and i was doing it shortly after shoulder surgry).

I didn't have a pry bar and kudos for doing that by your self! Thank goodness I had a friend helping me. We had the back end lifted with a chain hoist and while he was stepping where the wheel mounted to push down, I did happen to have a small 4x4 and once we got the top of the shock somewhat "there" ... well, being that Im a Marine...I say; its always good to carry a big stick and lets just say I gave it a little motivation. :eek:;)


I do like the lift and it serves the purpose I bought it for very well. I didn't need it for tire clearance, I just wanted to get more air under the buggy. I haven't notice that it rides much different but it sure feels like it sits way up now...nice!

I had the same issue with my 28"s and the add on piece , mine completely bent backwards and got stuck on the wheel. Mud busters has a replacement that extends without the add on bolts. The are made for larger tires, mud busters will sell you a replacement set for cost since you have an original set. Check my previous posts for pics of the replacements and some modifications I did to completely cover the rears.
