Can-Am Defender 1000 Master Rebuild Kit

The Can-Am Defender 1000 Master Rebuild Kit gives 2016–2017 owners a complete, top-to-bottom engine overhaul in one box. Choose this tier when you want long-term reliability, restored compression, and tighter tolerances throughout the top and bottom end. It replaces the most critical wear items with premium, proven components so your Defender comes back strong.

This Kit Includes:

• • HD Crankshaft
  • Upgraded piston
  • Standard bore cylinders
  • Standard bore piston rings
  • Babbitt coated engine main bearings
  • Exhaust gaskets

• Complete engine oil seal kit
• Complete engine O-ring kit
• Complete engine gasket kit
• (2) Replacement timing chains
• (4) Forged nitrite one piece intake valves
• (4) Forged nitrite one piece exhaust valves
• (8) High temp valve stem seals

This Master Rebuild Kit refreshes both the rotating assembly and the top end. The HD crankshaft and babbitt-coated main bearings stabilize the bottom end under heavy load. Meanwhile, the standard bore cylinders, upgraded pistons, and standard bore piston rings restore compression and smooth power. In addition, new timing chains hold valve timing precise, while fresh gasket, O-ring, and oil seal kits help eliminate leaks after reassembly.

On the top end, the set of forged valves and high-temp valve stem seals renew airflow and sealing so combustion stays consistent. As a result, you’ll see easier starts, cleaner idle, and stronger throttle response. Install this kit when you’re rebuilding a high-hour engine or repairing wear from overheating, dust ingestion, or oiling issues. Moreover, replacing these components together helps everything seat correctly and delivers long service life.

All parts meet or exceed OEM standards for fit and durability. Therefore, experienced DIY mechanics and professional shops can install with confidence. If you need help deciding between Master, Complete, or Refresh tiers, our team can point you to the best fit for your symptoms, hours, and budget.
