Hi All,
I'm new to this forum. Just got my 1st ATV - traded my motorcycle for a new 2007 Honda Rancher AT 4x4 400cc. I looking to get a winch and a cart to tow behind the ATV.

I looking to your experience for advice on what to buy. Also what are some good online ATV accessories vendors?

 

First welcome to the form. Second I would stick to name brand winch's as if you have any issue's w/ one they are fairly easy to find parts for it to repair.I have a warn 2.5 on my popo 600 and have never had any issues w/it in four years.The 2.5 would make a great winch for your rancher. Sorry I cant help much w/ the cart issue.Good luck with whatever one you choose.

 

Last year I bought a little John Deere cart to tow behind the Rancher. It's plastic and fairly light, with nice wheels that can be greased via zerk fitting. It also has a lever that allows the cart to tip backward and unload without unhitching from the ATV. The cart is actually made for John Deere riding mowers but it works well with the ATV. I put a 2" ball on the ATV and use a regular coupler welded to cart's metal tongue. I guess because it's green, and has John Deere written on it, it's more expensive than it should be!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Definitely a Warn winch. I have the RT25 on both my 420s and have been pleased with their performance.

 

Go to Harbor Freight and search for trailers Harbor Freight They will have good deals or try
Country ATV for some ideas but they are proud of there$. Country ATV

Like others have said Lawnmower trailers are basically the same thing and work well.

 

I built my own it's a quad tire ,walking beam axle , it's awesome

 

For yard work any lawn trailer is fine,it your trailer it going on a rough ATV trail then you need a trailer with ATV tires or it will bounce itself to pieces and tip over ever couple of yards.

 

I have a 4x8 folding trailer like the Harbour Freights sells. Hauls my atv with no problems. And the tilt load is great. I is only big enough for one though. I pull it with my Jeep Cherokee and if you look out the side view mirrors, you can't even see the trailer.

 

I think the guy was talking about a trail to pull with the ATV.
