Pull behind wagon for my Quad

[First-light]

Guys,

I want to have it to move stone, wood and give my kids a ride. Have looked online at Northern tool,

Lowes, Sears, Tractor supply and a local place in Canisteo (payne's). They run from 200-800$. Any thoughts or suggestions?

Would love to get one for about 350$

Get a used utility trailer. Put a ball hitch on your Quad and you're ready to go. I have an old 1/2 ton utility trailer that is used strictly for ATV use around the property. If I ever was forced to sell it, I'll guarantee that it would have to go for a lot less than $350. Brand new ones aren't a whole lot more. Mine is 8' long, but they make shorter ones (6', I believe).

Now, the one thing that I cannot do with that trailer and the ATV is go up the man-killer hill behind my house. For that I have a tiny garden tractor trailer that I built. Depending on what I might put in there, even that can be a mighty scary ride. However, for most utility use around relatively flat-ish land, the ATV will pull that loaded up 8 foot utility trailer around all day long with no problem at all.

For general use, as long as your loads arent too heavy, I would just get a used lawn tractor cart. You can pick them up on craigslist pretty cheap. If you want to do heavy loads, go with a flatbed utility trailer like Doc suggested.

my lawn tractor cart doesn't pull behind my wheeler very well if the dirt is uneven at all. I think it needs a wider stance.

Burt...keep an eye out on Craig's list...there are trailers there all the time. and many could be modified to just what you need pretty cheaply

chesk this out on sale at Harbor Freight right now. Just ad a deck and sides and you have one that will easily pull behind a wheeler or the truck.

Guys,

Thanks a lot! I think I may be going the utility trailer rout. Culver that is pretty nice from harbor freight, that just might get ordered!

Thanks again!

if you have one of those stores near you I have had them match the online pricing if they have them in stock. That width should track pretty close tot he 4 wheelers wheel tracks too.

I have seen the ones at Harbor Freight . I would go with this one from tractor Supply but it's twice as much .

I bought an Otter brand 6 years ago around $300.00 It is a molded plastic tub shape,I think ABS material I use it almost every other day behind my ATV I haul blue stone for stone walls,fire wood,dirt  and every thing else,It has wide tires not thoes skiney things,and a tilt feature.I know we had at least 1000 pounds in it,It is on the move all year.I would definitely buy another one if needed.

So this is what I ended up with. Best part it was FREEEEEEEEEE! My Nephew has it and really doesn't use it much. I pick it up in July. It's also is a dump cart and has a seat in the front of the wagon.

Thats great I'm sure it well come in very handy.

[hunter]

Homerun. If it's a free. It's a for me.

[WNYBuckHunter]

Nice, free is always good.

If you find that it is a bit too tippy, you can make a new axle and spacers to make it wider pretty easily.

[First-light]

Yea, thanks for the tip. Slightly bigger tires also.
