Take your Ranger to new heights
When it comes time to upgrade your Polaris side-by-side, a Polaris Ranger lift kit is one that can pay immediate and noticeable dividends. Raising the suspension doesn’t just give you more ground clearance; it gives you more tire clearance, too, allowing you to run bigger, beefier tires with more tread and contact patch. All of that equates to more off-road performance, enhancing your UTV’s ability to clear the most difficult terrain and not get stuck.
The Polaris Ranger series of UTVs was made to work and to roam, and there’s a reason it’s the industry’s most popular UTV model line. But even the Ranger can use a boost, and shoppers will find plenty of durable, high-quality Polaris Ranger lift kit options on the market at price points that won’t break the bank. In addition to the boost in performance, a Polaris Ranger lift kit can elevate your side-by-side to a more imposing, aggressive height. Lifted off-road vehicles definitely get noticed.
But with so many options available, and so many models – past and present – in the Ranger model line, it can be hard to know where to look. That’s why we’ve rounded up five of the best Ranger lift kits on the market, in one comprehensive list, to make the job of finding the right one for you a little bit easier.

SuperATV 2” Polaris Ranger Lift Kit
Another superb option in the 2” lift category, this Polaris Ranger lift kit from SuperATV is available for midsize Ranger 500, 570, and 800 models, including the 570 Crew. Typical for SuperATV, the parts are all top-notch in terms of quality, with heavy duty zinc-plated steel that will stand up to the elements for years without suffering any premature rust-related failures. SuperATV’s instructions and customer support are equally good reasons to buy, and the parts are designed to maintain proper suspension angles for a predictable, great-handling ride.
Waverspeed 2” Lift Kit
Raise the ride height on your Polaris Ranger 570 for less, with this supremely affordable 2” Polaris Ranger lift kit from Waverspeed. When we say “supremely affordable,” we mean it; this kit is available on Amazon right now for less than $60, and it comes with everything you need to add a full two inches of lift to your Ranger 570, including a set of front lift spacers, rear lift brackets, and all necessary hardware. The kit isn’t made up of cheap junk pieces, either; the rear brackets, for instance, are made from thick-gauge, yellow zinc-plated steel. It might be the best bang-for-your-buck on this list – assuming you’ve got a compatible Polaris Ranger 570.
High Lifter Signature Series 3” Lift Kit
Any time we go looking for an ATV or UTV suspension lift kit, High Lifter is one of the first brands we scope out. This Polaris Ranger lift kit, part of High Lifter’s Signature Series, is compatible with numerous 500, 700, and 800 side-by-side models, as well as the 500 and 800 Crew IRS. As a Signature Series kit, it comes with a nifty, clear-coated High Lifter nameplate – but that’s just a bonus. More importantly, it comes with heavy duty precision-cut steel parts with a durable yellow zinc plating to help them stand up to the elements, and the kit allows Polaris Ranger riders to fit tires as large as 28 inches in diameter.
Ranger Prolift Polaris Ranger 3” Lift Kit
Ranger Prolift isn’t a brand you’ve probably ever heard of before. As a matter of fact, they only make a handful of products, all of them lift kits for the Polaris Ranger model line. And yet, the kits are made in the USA, and all highly regarded by Ranger owners. This 3” lift kit fits older body style Ranger models, and has some of the thickest, heaviest-duty brackets we’ve ever seen on a UTV lift kit. Those brackets are coated in gloss black for resistance to the elements, and the lift is good for tires up to 28.5 inches in diameter, for plenty of trail-conquering performance.
S3 Power Sports 5” Lift Kit with A-Arms
You know what they say: go tall, or go home. At least, maybe they would say that if they’d ever ridden a UTV with a mondo 5” lift. This Polaris Ranger lift kit from S3 Power Sports offers one of the biggest lifts in the business, with high-arch replacement control arms for extreme clearance. It’s the priciest option on this list, but that distinction is earned; the kit is designed to make use of the factory axles with no binding, which is a feat at that height, and with this equipped, S3 Power Sports says your Ranger will be able to accept up to a 30-inch tire. The kit is compatible with numerous Ranger models, from the 570, XP 900, and XP 1000 ranges, including Crew models.
