MTS Front Limit Strap Kit Install Guide

Today we’re walking you through the full installation of the MTS Front Limit Strap Kit for the Polaris Pro-R, Turbo-R, and Pro-S. Follow the steps below carefully—proper setup is critical to performance and chassis longevity.

Tools You’ll Need

Before starting, make sure you have:

• Floor jack

• 15mm socket + extension

• 8mm Allen

• 10mm Allen

• 16mm socket

• Two 18mm wrenches

• Impact (optional but helpful)

---

Step 1: Jack Up the Vehicle

Start by safely lifting the car. Make sure it’s properly supported before beginning the install.

---

Step 2: Remove the Sway Bar Bracket

• Use a 15mm socket with an extension to remove the sway bar bracket bolts.

• The top of the bolt is square, so you only need to hold it from the bottom.

• Once the bolts are removed, take off the sway bar bracket.

---

Step 3: Install the MTS Billet Bracket

• Grab the MTS-supplied billet bracket.

• Reinstall it with the long portion facing the rear of the vehicle.

• Use the supplied 10mm bolts.

• Install them with the bolt head facing up and the nut on the bottom.

---

Step 4: Install the Reinforcement Tabs (Very Important)

Your kit includes two metal reinforcement tabs. These are critical for strengthening the chassis.

• Slide the tab onto the bolt.

• Position it against the mount facing the rear of the vehicle.

• Insert the bolt through the tab and bracket.

• Repeat on the opposite side.

To tighten:

• Use an 8mm Allen and a 16mm socket.

Do not skip or misinstall these tabs. They are essential for frame strength.

---

Step 5: Assemble the Limit Strap & Clevis

1. Unscrew the jam nuts.

2. Remove the washers and spring (the springs are not needed—discard them).

3. Remove the 5/8” bolt and nut.

4. Install the limit strap into the clevis.

5. Reinstall the bolt and secure it.

---

Step 6: Set the Jam Nut (Most Important Step)

Proper adjustment here is critical.

• You want 2 inches of thread showing above the lower jam nut.

• Too tight = excessive tension on the frame.

• Too loose = straps won’t function properly.

Do not thread the clevis too far in. Over-adjustment can cause issues.

Once properly adjusted, you’re ready to install the lower bolts on the sway bar end link.

---

Step 7: Remove Lower Sway Bar End Link Bolts

Pro tip: Lowering the vehicle makes removal easier.

• Lower the car for better axle clearance.

• If applicable, switch to comfort mode and turn the wheel to allow the suspension to settle fully.

To remove:

• Use two 18mm wrenches to break the bolts loose.

• These can be very tight—use extra leverage if needed.

• Once loose, remove with an impact if available.

---

Step 8: Install New Hardware & Spacers

Your kit includes spacers:

• If NOT running front sway bars → install spacers to fill the gap in the arm.

• If running front sway bars → use only the stepped spacers included.

The stepped portion fits inside the mounting tab.

Installation order (rear to front):

1. Insert bolt from back to front.

2. Add spacer.

3. Install limit strap onto bolt.

4. Add washer and nut.

Tighten using:

• 10mm Allen

• 18mm wrench

Make sure these bolts are fully tightened. If they loosen during riding, the strap can detach.

---

Step 9: Final Upper Mount Install

For the final step:

1. Install one jam nut washer.

2. Slide the clevis down into the bracket.

3. Install the second washer on top.

4. Thread on the nut and tighten securely.

---

Final Adjustment & Troubleshooting

If you hear a clunking sound after installation:

• You can slightly tighten (shorten) the limit strap.

• Do not over-tighten beyond recommended settings.

Once your clevis jam nuts are tightened and everything is secure, your install is complete.
