Dalton Industries ATV Can-Am DBO 450 Springs
2016-2021 Can Am Outlander/Outlander Max 450 4X4 ATV – Oversized tires
Type: Clutch Kits
Model: DBO 450
For: Can-Am/BRP
Introduced: Dec 1969
Description:
The 450 Outlander has fairly good factory clutching for the stock tires at low elevation. This clutch kit was developed to help recover losses incurred from installing oversized tires.
This clutch re-calibration is a good improvement in acceleration compared to stock clutch components after installing those larger tires.
Back shifting is improved, which means it back shifts the belt to the proper ratio on the clutches as the vehicle senses load conditions. Better belt grip and improved throttle response. This can can also be used to help with power loss at higher elevations, even with stock tires.
Sometimes more parts is not better. The 450 comes with flyweights that are well suited to its application and re-calibrations are accomplished with only the use of new springs. New springs are included for both the primary and secondary clutch.
Note: Not for stock tires at low elevation (0-4000”). The kit is for oversized tires and will not help performance of stock tires, but rather could have negative effects on speed and fuel economy.
Additional Notes:
Question: What about the Outlander 450 6X6 ?
Answer: We have never tested the application. We simply never recommend what we have not tested, and do not have a vehicle here for that testing. However, we have had some that have, on their own initiative, tried this standard kit to see if it would help, and claimed that it did. This is feedback from one. We do NOT normally have anything to do with anyone testing our products...we must do it here and prove all variables, and terrains, etc. This is just that, feedback, not a recommendation. It may be something that someone in the same situation may want to hear, so they can decide to experiment on their own. This is a very inexpensive kit and seemed to help him similar to the standard 450, so we allowed it to happen for the benefit of those who may be interested. We have not tested this application here, if we ever do, it will be updated here of course.
