That a boy ! Just what you needed. Glad you got the lift for the Commander.
Great job! I went with 29's just for that reason....no trimming. After if was all said and done I have 15" clearance in front and 14" in back, so I adjusted the shocks accordingly. Its ridiculous how much difference it is. Best money i ever spent on my '14 Commander XP.
I have a stock 2013 Can-am commander 800r yellow just put 30 inch tires on my stock commander it did have 27 inch tires they fit good enough space between back tire and frame looks bad ass love it! My clearance now is 15 inches off the ground pretty good for stock!
About to order this lift, now I know what to expect THANKS!
Yeah, I wanna let you know. I got a 2013 commander limited and I did the same thing you did probably five years ago, but I actually spent a little more money in and bought king shocks and a travel kit but the same brackets they had to jack the rig up, I love the rig. It’s great for camping and fishing and hunting. I had to take the stock shocks off because the air pump system. The pump kept running back-and-forth and getting hot and shutting down and it really wasn’t a good system because when you raise the rig with the air all the way full height, it still rides stiff when you drop the air out to the bottom it’s still stiff, so why? I went with King shock.
Thanks for the video! Looking forward to a follow up review of this lift kit. Thinking about ordering the same one for my Commander.

Yea after the first couple rides I’ll definitely do a follow up video on my thoughts and the difference it makes
Been looking at this kit or the 2" kit, thanks for the great videos, now get one side by side with your dad's, and then go on a trail ride and let us know if it binds. 😀
Looks good, glad the one guy I can find that has decent commander videos has basically the same as me. Except mines all stock, 1000r
The new wheels and tires look sick! By far my favourite wheels. Also like the TPB quote 😂, do the spacers for sure! Make it look even better! And I’m guessing u bought the cryptids brand new because when u do that you get true sizes but the ones that come on the XMRs stock measure 1-2” short which is weird.
I just installed this same lift in a 2017 commander 1000xt, not sure if the newer ones are different but there was no cutting of the bracket required. Just had to pop the vent line fitting out from the factory location and there was a spot to pop it in on the new bracket. PS: love the look of the new wheels and tires 👍
There totally was that same hole in the bracket I just found out after I cut the corner off 😂
Doing my Max XT today.. 😁
installing mine now......
Hey Pal, nice work, it looks like we ran into the same issue dropping the nut when doing the front shock.
One thing I noticed but not sure if you added it off air is that the front mounts also use the original shock bolts in the original holes. This gives you the most support.
Hi there, I had same problem dropping the m6 nut down drivers side front in a un reachable spot that took over an hour to find and retrive and 4 cans of beer later, As i found installing new front brackets mine were had to fit too slight tap with hammer and hole tad bit out too. Same again with drivers side rear i cut angle piece miss vent tube for rear diff, As for price for this 2.5 lift kit to Australia was $ 453.38
I have a commander Limited 2019
The stock cryptids on my 22 outlander xmr measure small. If you order them from a tire shop they measure an inch bigger. No idea as to why. Maybe a brp spec or screw up? Many atv tires don’t measure as listed. I have a 2017 commander and ordered the same lift today. Putting a set of 28 inch big horns on it since I already have them . Been using them for trail rides on the xmr.
🏆🏆🏆👍🙏🇨🇱
Thank you for sharing.
how is the power and top end since yo went to the 30" tires?
What size bolt is the top shock for stock shocks
Did the ride quality get worse after installing the lift kit. I think mine got much worse
It took me like 2 hours to get my front brackets in and the shock tower assembly won't even fit in the aftermarket bracket unless I grid it down and then it won't even line up with the hole unless I use a spring compressor
I had to do that on the rear brackets, it’s seems there’s some inconsistencies with the brackets from super atv. Not a big deal though. If the kit cost 700 bucks I’d be pissed off, but for it being as cheap as it is, I can’t really complain too too much haha
@@CommanderOutdoors thats what I figured I'm only out about 170 just gonna keep it stock. I ordered a rear bumper from can am and that things a nightmare. The superatv nerf bars don't line up either gonna have to grind and cut out plastic underneath. I have the doors coming in today can't wait to see what surprises I run into
What doors are they? I know the Pro Armor doors from BRP are a royal son of a bitch to put on
@@CommanderOutdoors superatv doors
Hey Bud, I am installing the same kit on the same bike. Did you have trouble getting the shocks to fit? For me its really bad at the rear. The control arm will not travel down enough for me to get the shock in the bracket. Almost like the shock is too tall. Also, in this position, my brake line is stretched to the max. and I still need another inch to et the shock to fit. Am I missing something?
I didn’t have a hard time getting them to fit, don’t know what to tell ya pal
Fixed. I was raising one side at a time. I then went and dissasembled the other side and POOF, they both lined up perfectly
Hey bud.. I'm doing mine.. And ran into that situation where there's not enough room anymore on the shocks to fit.. You can lift the Commander off the ground some more so the other side stretches and you can move the position of the arms up and down some more until you fit the shock correctly it took me a few minutes to figure out that but I got it all done in the back now
Could you tell me where you purchased your kit cause I’d like a 2.5 but Royal Distributing only has a 1.5 kit. Any info would be appreciated thanks.
Dirty Life ATV in Stirling Ontario.
Mention I sent you to Trevor
Seeing as you've had this lift on now for about 3 months, have you had any axle issues with this lift yet? My fear of axle problems is what's been the holdup on me getting this lift for mine.
No I haven’t had Axl issues yet but I’m expecting them to happen. When they break I’ll be putting in Turner Eagle axles
@@CommanderOutdoors why the turner eagles over like rhino 2.0's? I haven't researched either one yet, curious on your opinion!
I have several friends who have had nothing but bad experiences with Rhino and Demon axles, mainly the CV boot is utter shit and rips almost right away or the Gear clamp is on so tight is cuts the CV boot and the grease leaks out. Turner Eagle and Gorilla are the brands I haven’t heard too many bad thing about, and let’s be real real life experience is worth 10x more than some online review.
@@CommanderOutdoors lol couldn't agree more!
Have you had an issue with the clutch with the bigger tires?
Knock on wood, not yet
Where did you get your doors at
Those doors are straight from BRP
You could just reroute the hose and it be a lot easier
