Your A-arms take a beating out there. One hit from a rock, root, or stump and you could be stuck on the trail or facing a repair bill that stings. This guard set bolts right to your Alterra 500 and keeps your A-arms safe from damage that'd otherwise wreck your day.
Fits What
- Textron / Arctic Cat Alterra 500 (2018–2023)
What You Get
- Front and rear A-arm guards
- All bolts and hardware needed — nothing extra to buy, just mount and go
Steel or Aluminum — Pick Your Style
You've got two solid options depending on how hard you ride and what matters to you.
- 3/16" 5052-H32 Aluminum — Strong, proven in the field, and a proven choice for riders who want solid protection without carrying a ton of weight.
- 3/16" Aluminum + 1/4" UHMW Overlay — This combo eats impacts for breakfast. The UHMW layer on top absorbs shock and slides over rocks like they're nothing. Go with this if you're hitting it hard.
Add Black Powder Coat
Want your guards to look as tough as they perform? A black powder coat finish gives you a finished look that matches a clean build. It's $50 for all four guards.
If you order the powder coat, tack on an extra 1 to 2 weeks for it to ship. Totally worth it if you're not in a rush.
Made in the USA.
