Dempsey X3 Correct Shoulder Bolt Kit from Pro UTV Parts

Here is a complete bolt kit that will have the correct shoulders for each suspension bolt on your X3. These bolts are 10.9 hard and have the correct shoulder length for your X3. Why is this important? Bolt threads in suspension tabs loosen the fit of the bolt and actually cause the threaded portion of the bolt to make the hole bigger. The threaded 10.9 hard bolt acts like a reamer to the softer suspension tabs. Serious off-road racers replace all of the bolts on their machines with correct shouldered bolts.

PM or order online.

Did you use the correct bolt in the set? They are labeled, however it can be confusing. We will get you the right ones if the wrong bolt was packaged.

I used the 3 packages labeled rear lower hub, rear middle hub, and rear lower hub and they were all the wrong size. Seems weird all 3 would be too long.

The shoulder of the bolts are probably only 1/16" or so too long. There aren't enough threads to tighten everything down. I had to put the factory bolts back in. The entire front kit worked perfect though.

Dempsey told me that there are washers supplied for the bolts in question. Did your kit have washers?

There was 2 washers per bolt. I'm guessing one for the bolt head side and one for the nut side? That how I had it.

If I can ask, what didn't work, washers or bolt length?

Not overall bolt length, but the shoulder of the bolt is too long. It's only on the three bolts going into the rear hub
