Can-Am Maverick R Lift Kits

A Maverick R crawling a creek-bottom ledge on 40-inch-plus tires needs more than taller springs. It needs gearing at the wheel and clearance under the knuckles, which is the job of a portal gear lift. This page centers on SuperATV's 6-inch GDP portal built for the Maverick R, with billet aluminum housings, dual idler gears cut from 9310 alloy steel and your choice of 30%, 45% or 60% gear reduction. SuperATV's tire table for the kit lists 46-inch tires on stock suspension.

SuperATV builds this kit for the 2024-and-newer Maverick R, including the R X and R X RS trims, and it covers the four-seat Maverick R MAX. Fit is model-specific because the kit's 5/16-inch steel alloy backing plates replace the factory knuckle assembly at all four corners, and the dual idler layout adds a 1-inch offset front and rear for 2 inches of total extension. We only sell brands we'd bolt onto our own machines. We're the fitment experts.

BUYER'S GUIDE: How to Choose a Can-Am Maverick R Lift Kit

On the Maverick R, lift and gearing arrive in the same box. A portal gearbox at each hub raises the machine 6 inches and moves gear reduction into the hub, so the ratio you pick shapes how the car drives afterward. Portal hardware for this machine also has its own Maverick R portal gear lift section.

SuperATV Maverick R 6-inch portal gear reduction options compared
Gear reduction Material and specs Best for What you give up
30% reduction 9310 steel dual idler gears in billet aluminum housings, 6 inches of lift Adding torque while holding higher speeds on fast trails The least low-end pull of the three behind the biggest tires
45% reduction Same 9310 gears and billet housings with the middle ratio Mixed riding that needs a balance of torque and speed Neither the top speed of 30% nor the crawl of 60%
60% reduction Same 9310 gears and billet housings with the deepest ratio Extreme torque for the worst trails and the biggest tires The most top speed traded away of the three

Inside a Maverick R Portal Box: The Parts That Carry the Load

On a portal lift most of the price sits inside the gearbox. SuperATV cuts its gears from 9310 alloy steel and CNC grinds them so both idler gears share the load evenly, and running two idlers doubles the gear surface carrying torque. Each housing gets a sealed input gear, a double-lipped output seal and double angular contact output bearings. SuperATV leaves breather vents out after its testing found they did more harm than good. The drive shaft is 1.5-inch 4340 hardened steel, and SuperATV formulates a gear oil called Portal Blood specifically for GDP portals. Because the reduction happens in the hub, the transmission, differential, prop shaft, axles and CVs see less strain turning a big tire than they would without it.

The call our fitment desk takes most on this kit comes from an owner who picked a reduction for the tires on the car, then went bigger the next season. Choose the ratio for the tire you plan to run, not the one you have now.

Maverick R Lift Kit Cost, From a Spare Rotor Pair to Full Portals

On this page, lifting a Maverick R is a portal-level purchase. The lowest spend here is SuperATV's replacement portal rotor pair at $145.97 to $193.01. It isn't a lift, but it's the spare that keeps a portal car rolling after a rotor meets a rock. The kit itself starts at $4,400.15 for the complete 6-inch system. Fully optioned it tops out at $4,630.40, with the reduction and frame stiffener choices setting the final number. Affirm financing is available at checkout on a purchase this size, and every order is covered by our risk-free 90-day return policy.

The most common warranty is between 3-6 months, but Everything Can-Am Offroad does offer extended 1- and 2-year warranties on all products if that is something you are interested in — you can add the extended warranty right at checkout. SuperATV adds its own limited lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects on the GDP portal kit, and the replacement rotors carry a 3-month defect warranty.

Can-Am Maverick R Lift Kit FAQ

Does the SuperATV portal fit the Maverick R MAX and the X RS trim?

Yes. SuperATV lists the 2024-and-newer Maverick R, R X and R X RS, and the listing covers the four-seat R MAX too. Text us your year and trim and we'll confirm it before you order.

What does the frame stiffener question on the listing mean?

It's a required choice before checkout. Pick "No, I already have a frame stiffener" only if one is already on your machine. Otherwise pick "Yes" and it's added to the order. If you aren't sure, text us and we'll help you check.

Will I need new wheels and tires with the portal lift?

Not to install it. The kit ships with universal hubs that fit all major bolt patterns, so your wheel choice stays open. If bigger rubber is the plan, note that SuperATV measures its 46-inch figure at full compression and full turn. Pick the lift and the tire together from our Maverick R tire selection so the clearance and the gearing match.

Can I install a portal lift in my own garage?

It's a four-corner job and a bigger one than any bracket lift. The backing plates replace the knuckles, each corner gets an assembled portal box, new hub and slotted rotor, and the kit swaps in extended brake lines. All hardware is included down to a recessed castle nut socket, and the listing carries a downloadable install PDF. Plan on bleeding the brakes after the line swap.
