EPI High Elevation Sport Utility Clutch Kit for 2010–2013 Polaris Ranger 500 Models (Stock Tires)
The EPI WE436945 High Elevation Sport Utility Clutch Kit is precision-engineered for 2010–2013 Polaris Ranger 500 models running stock tires at elevations between 3,000–6,000 feet. Higher altitudes reduce engine performance due to thinner air, often resulting in sluggish acceleration and decreased throttle response. This clutch kit restores lost power and improves overall drivetrain efficiency at elevation.
Designed as EPI’s best all-around use kit, it enhances low-end torque, strengthens midrange acceleration, and delivers quicker backshift for crisp throttle response. Whether you’re trail riding, navigating occasional mud and sand, plowing snow, or hauling heavy loads, this kit ensures smoother power transfer while reducing belt slip and clutch heat.
