P1000 High lifter control arm guard

Does anyone know of guards for the highlifter arched arms for front and rear?

No, but...I don't feel I need lower control arm guards with the heavy duty construction and increased clearance. Some here say guards just collect mud/dirt/rocks. I will still respect the terrain. My biggest concern is the lack of robustness of the a-arm mounts on the HPK1. And the OEM bushings are rubber and can absorb more shock that the HL poly bushings. Gotta say I feel more comfortable on the rocky trails with the increased a-arm clearance. Only have the rears installed. Fronts this weekend.

You’re not wrong. I installed a super atv gusset/frame brace for that very reason. If you’re doing the fronts, it’s easy insurance for an extra $100.

I like the guards for the coverage of the cv boots it provides. Most that I see wrap up and keep trees and logs out of the shaft and keep you from tearing a boot. That's why I wanted guards.

I'm running the satv arms. About 3k miles with no guards. Even recently I've been using my 3 seat to run down small crab apple saplings and briar bushes in a 20 acre wooded lot. We've cut nearly a mile of trail mainly just running s*** over and the cleaning up the mess once I'm stuck. I've ripped a mud buster and two lights off the machine but had no issues with debris around the control arms. The first 1k miles with the stock arms with guards I had a hell of a time keeping s*** out them. I tore two boots with the guards.
