Default 2008 Polaris Sportsman 400 H.O

2008 Polaris Sportsman 400 H.O I was attempting to put a lift on my atv. The front tires are straight. My back tires are cocked out. I can't get the tires straight. What should do?

You can try adjusting the shock stiffness but probably won't help. A lot of lift kits in trying to raise the height will cause the camber to change because they don't allow enough for the swing arm length. Don't know if it will help when you put some weight on the machine.I've seen some kits that had adapter plates on the frame that allowed swing arms to extend out further that would compensate for height changes.
