Before I bought my trailer for my Arctic Cat 500 and 400 I had the same problem with my Dakota R/T. An easy solution is to buy a portable air tank and let the air out of the tires to around 1-2 psi so the gate will close. Air up the tires when you arive and you are set. It is also nice to have in case of a flat or to dust off an area if needed. It worked for me until I bought an extra quad. It should work just fine with the larger tires.

I can close the tailgate on my old swb Silverado with my stock Rubicon loaded. Before I close it, I drive the Ruby's front wheels up on a couple of 2X6 boards that are about a foot long each. This extra height on the front allows it to go in a tad farther. Then I put a couple of tie-downs from the rear stake holes to the foot pegs since there's only a couple of inches clearance behind the rear window.
