Can-Am Maverick R MAX Dual Shock Conversion Rear Baja Race Trailing Arm

Can-Am Maverick R MAX Dual Shock Conversion Rear Baja Race Trailing Arm

The AVID Racing Maverick R Rear Race Trailing Arm and Dual Shock Conversion Kit is built to pair perfectly with our front race control arm kit and turn the Maverick R into a true race platform front to rear. This system replaces the factory rear suspension with a race style trailing arm layout and converts the car to a dual shock rear setup that can handle real desert and short course abuse.

The kit is designed around a new rear shock tower that ties into the factory pivot locations. Welding is required, but it is kept as minimal and straightforward as possible, with clear locating points and bracing built in. Once installed, the tower accepts a 16 inch 5 tube bypass shock and a 14 inch 2.0 coilover, giving you a proper race style main and bypass combination with the travel and control to match the AVID front system.

Race style trailing arms are engineered for strength, clearance, and correct motion ratios. The geometry is tuned to work with the dual shock layout so the rear of the car can stay planted in the chop, take big hits, and still keep traction on corner exit.

What This Means on the Car

• True race rear suspension: Dual shock layout with separate coilover and bypass control gives you the tuning range needed for real race pace.
• Balanced with the AVID front kit: Rear geometry and travel are designed to complement our Maverick R front race system so the car works as a complete package.
• Stronger and more controlled than stock: Race style trailing arms, a dedicated shock tower, and proper bypass shocks transform the rear of the car from trail tune to race tune.
• Improved heat and fade resistance: The 5 tube bypass and dedicated coilover share the work, reducing shock heat and keeping damping consistent on long desert runs.

Key Features

• Race style rear trailing arm system engineered for the Can-Am Maverick R
• Dual shock conversion using a 16 inch 5 tube bypass shock and 14 inch 2.0 coilover
• Weld in rear shock tower that ties into factory pivot locations with minimal welding required
• Geometry matched to the AVID Maverick R front race control arm kit for a balanced chassis
• Designed around long travel rear suspension and real race use

Included in Base Kit

• Left and right rear race trailing arms
• Hardware and spacers for arm and shock installation (where applicable)

Recommended Add Ons

• ADS Rear Bypass and Coilover Package: A matched 16 inch 5 tube bypass and 14 inch 2.0 coilover package built for this kit to give you full control over rebound, compression, and bottoming resistance.
• Titanium Hardware Kit: Reduces unsprung weight, fights corrosion, and adds extra strength at critical mounting points.

Bottom line: The AVID Maverick R Rear Race Trailing Arm and Dual Shock Conversion Kit is the missing half of the full race package. Paired with our front race control arm kit, it turns the Maverick R into a complete race ready platform with real bypass control, long travel geometry, and the strength to handle serious desert and short course use.
