2011 800 lift

Anyone done a 2"lift on a 2011 or 2012 Sportsman 800 without doing anything to the rear axles?

You can not run the lift without the rear axle bar kit. The stock axles on these new models get in a bind when lifted. Here's what you need..
High Lifter Products - Axle Bar Kit - Polaris 500/800 Sportsman 2011-2012 (Rear)

well ive got rear done, very easy only took about 45 mins. I got one side of the front done, took about 2 hours for one side you have to do some grinding to get your axle boot to clear, should have the rest done tomorrow

well its complete!!! over lift was 2inch front and rear. No axle binding and ride is just a tad stiffer up front. Fairly easy install. I recommend Rubber Down Customs 2inch lift. quality stuff and no problems!!!!!
