Can-Am Maverick R – Baja Race 7075-T6 Billet Uprights / Knuckles
AVID Racing Can-Am Maverick R Baja Race 7075-T6 Billet Uprights are the foundation of the AVID Maverick R RACE race-spec front suspension. CNC-machined from 7075-T6 aluminum and equipped with 1" vertical uniballs in a true double shear configuration , they deliver complete, corrected geometry: KPI, scrub radius, caster, and camber gain . The result is exceptional handling precision and high-speed stability .
These knuckles are designed to work exclusively with the complete AVID Maverick R Baja or RACE kit and should be installed as part of a complete system. Compared to the chromoly version, the 7075-T6 billet variant is approximately 20% lighter , yet stiffer and stronger .
The lower pivot point retains the factory location , allowing the knuckles to work with select third-party lower control arms that utilize a vertical pivot or uniball in the lower mount. The upper control arm must be an AVID control arm or a custom-made component designed to match AVID geometry and uniball configuration.
What does this mean in practice?
-
Sharper steering response – adjusted KPI and scrub radius keep the tire in optimal contact with the ground and reduce steering effort at high speeds.
-
More stability in challenging terrain – improved camber and caster control ensures predictability on washboards, ruts and landings.
-
Lighter and Stronger – Billet 7075-T6 construction is approximately 20% lighter and significantly stronger than chromoly knuckles and stock OEM castings.
-
Compatibility with aftermarket lower control arms – compatible with selected lower control arms with a vertical bearing or uniball, when using an AVID or custom upper control arm.
