Fuel and Intake
As an off-road enthusiast, it's important to keep your Can-am Defender intakes in mind, especially when riding under unconventional conditions like mud, water, and snow. While snorkeling your side-by-side is helpful in bogs and creek crossings, it's not enough for powdery snow, gritty mud, and fine sand. One solution is to redesign the CVT and Engine air intake locations to maximize fresh clean air intake. Can-am Defender's on tracks benefit from moving the intake up in front of the vehicle to keep dust and snow out of the intakes and away from the cab. Powder riders with tracked-out Defenders often use prefilters to protect their combustion air intakes when riding. While there's no kit for the combustion air intake, you can still reroute snorkels into the cab with a kit available from BRP. By keeping your Can-am Defender's intakes in mind, you'll ensure a more enjoyable, trouble-free ride.

FILTERS
In addition to running high snorkels to put the air intake up high able the dirt, dust, and water, many riders like to modify their air boxes with epoxy and hit their vent lines with silicone so that they don’t leak. And if you’re worried about how you’ll be able to change your air filter in the future after doing this, you can use the cheaper clear silicone on on your air and belt box lids so you can pry it off easily if need be. Another thing you can do is run your weep tube up high to help keep it clean from mud so that you can better monitor if you have water pump seal problems. Regardless, if you’re modifying your Can-An Defender intakes, looking for intake kits, or trying to find replacement intake components, here at Everything Can-An Offroad, we’ve got all the best intake-related aftermarket accessories for the Can-Am Defender.
