The_Real_TCIII Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Reverse deal, I gave my cousin my ten year old quad and he put in a half bathroom for me. Saved me thousands. I never used the quad much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gencountyzeek Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 I just traded a $400 marlin 30-30 for this polaris 700. Its a guy i used to work with. Sled runs good, shocks just rebuilt. It has a electrical issue with the headlight and tail light. Easy money if i wanted to flip it. But i think ill enjoy it if we get snow again. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i think ill enjoy it if we get snow again.I rode one of those once. Ended up with 32 stitches in my mouth after my buddy said when we get to where the field opens up go as fast as you want. I did but he forgot to tell me that it didn't open up where I thought because the creek bank was covered with 6' of snow. Windshield went up under my face cover on the helmet I was wearing. Didn't even know until we were headed in and my face unthawed a little and the blood just started flowing.

The ranger is nice but the bed is a little small, I need something to haul firewood in and out of the woods. I'm thinking about one of those dumping trailers but full of firewood it would just push my 4 wheeler around. I want to get to the point where I buck the logs and split right there in the woods leaving the mess there and not in my driveway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk if the sxs still comes with that or not. I too am using it for firewood,hunting, screwing off as we have a Bryan outdoor wood furnace and it likes wood. 2-3 cords a month. Can get back where I can't go with a pickup. And it leaves a light foot print. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WNYBuckHunter Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Your bunks should extend to and support the transom. There is alot of weight back there between the engine and outdrive. It is just a matter of time before the hull is damaged from sitting on and being towed on that trailer. Personally I prefer bunk trailers to roller trailers, as theres less to go wrong with them and they spread the load out over a larger surface. Might just be personal preference, but Ive seen what roller trailers do to hulls over time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went out and measured from transom to last roller (I hope to go to bunks when I can) is 21 inches (I think pic makes it look alot worse) what should it be? Last thing I want is damage.

WNYBuckHunter Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 The bunks should be even with the transom or within a few inches 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk How much tongue weight is there? With a boat that big you should have around 300lbs.

Not only that way easier and cheaper to maintain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
