Can-Am Defender Ultimate Shifter Kit

Transform Your Can-Am Defender's Shifting Experience

Upgrade one of the most-used controls on your Can-Am Defender with the MCE Offroad Ultimate Shifter Kit. This complete upgrade package combines our most popular shifting components into one easy-to-order kit, giving your Defender smoother, more precise shifts while dramatically improving the look and feel of your interior.

Whether you're working on the farm, crawling through technical trails, hauling equipment, or enjoying a weekend ride, every shift should feel confident and controlled. The Ultimate Shifter Kit reduces the sloppy feel of the factory shifter while providing shorter throws, improved ergonomics, and a premium billet aluminum finish. The kit bundles a short shifter, stainless steel shift gate, and billet aluminum shift handle, with multiple finish options to match your machine.

Instead of purchasing individual components separately, the Ultimate Shifter Kit includes everything needed to dramatically improve the Defender's shifting system.

Depending on the options selected, the kit can include:

Performance Short Shifter
Billet Aluminum Shift Handle

Every component is designed specifically for the 2016–2026 Can-Am Defender HD8, HD9, and HD10, ensuring an OEM-quality fit and finish.
