EPI Performance Low Elev. Sport Utility Clutch Kit for 2016-20 Polaris RZR 1000 Models – 27-28 Inch Heavy/ Aggressive Ti

2016–2020 Polaris RZR 1000 Sport Utility Clutch Kit for 27–28” Heavy/Aggressive Tires (0–3000 ft)

The EPI Performance Low Elevation Sport Utility Clutch Kit is engineered specifically for 2016–2020 Polaris RZR 1000 models running 27–28 inch heavy or aggressive tread tires at elevations between 0–3000 feet. Larger, heavier tires increase rotating mass and drivetrain load, often resulting in sluggish throttle response, reduced acceleration, and excess belt heat. This precision-calibrated clutch kit restores lost performance and optimizes CVT efficiency.

Designed as EPI’s best all-around use kit, this upgrade strengthens low-end torque, improves midrange acceleration, and delivers quicker backshift response. Whether you’re trail riding, navigating occasional mud and sand, plowing, hauling, or running aggressive terrain tires, this clutch kit keeps your RZR operating in its optimal power band.
