I've gone and jacked up my 2011 Polaris Sportsman 500 with a 2inch front lift kit and slapped on some beefy 28inch Outlaw 2 tires.

Now, whenever I crank the wheel, the front left CV axle pops out like a jack in the box.
The right side seems to be sitting pretty, though. Has anyone else run into this snag?

Any ideas on how to nip this problem in the bud?
I'd sure appreciate any recommendations you can throw my way.
 
From my experience with lift kits, not sure how it works on these kinds of vehicles though, whenever you install a set, you'll need to be prepared that the rest of the suspension and moving parts won't be fitting right, or will have some kinds of issues. Not sure what your next step is, but I'm guessing it's going to be something aftermarket.
