Default CV Boot Protection

Who makes a good cv boot protector? I've seen several of them out there, but I don't know what would be considered the best, and would also fit my atp500. I beleive my ATP would have the same front suspension as the Sportmans 500, but I'm not really sure.
Thanks

Take a look at Stick Stoppers at candssales.com. I put them on my SP700 for a complete set $100 to your door.

More manufacturers should make them, along with skid plates standard on all models. Thats another reason i chose AC. I think alot of people would appreciate a well protected quad from a dealer!

I went to Savant Mfg. Inc. (the manufacturer of Stick Stopper), and I didn't see them list the 2004 Polaris ATP500, so I called them. They said they don't know whether they make them or not. However, if my A- arms are the same as the 2004 Sportmans 500, I could probably use them. Now the question is, are they the same?

Katuzo......
I have the Stick Stoppers on my 05 700 and would definitely reccomend them........Judging from the abuse they take, they're doing the job.........They are very heavy duty and install quite quickly...

Actually, Polaris does make at least some of their machines with a CV joint shield. I looked up in the Polaris 2004 ATP 500 parts book, and found the part# of it, and the part number of the A-Arm. With this knowledge in hand, I then proceeded to look up the other models that Savant made stick stoppers for. Unfortunately, none of those models matched my A-Arm. The only model that matches mine that I found so far is the 2004 ATP330. Searching this web, I only found one person with a ATP330 with stick stoppers. I believe his are custom made but I PM him for more info. I was hoping other manufacturers, apart from Savant, might make some sort of CV protection for my ride.
Thanks

i put stick stoppers on mine and the wifes machine and mine have already paid for them selfs when i hit a stump real hard. they didnt show them for a 450 either so i just ordered a 500 model and it fit. i did have to cut off the holders for the factory ones to fit on the front. the back went right on. well worth the 200.00 bucks.
