rear trailor hitch
bigger rear tires
tire chains
low end pipe
higher tooth finnal gear and chain

if anyone knows where to get these things please tell me.
thanks

 

you've got the wrong atv for what you're doing. I dont know of any company that would make a trailer hitch for a sport machine. if you're going to tow things you're going to destroy the drivetrain, they werent made for that kind of work.

 

sell it & get something more suited for what your doing.

 

i dont have one yet but there is a new 05 that looks like its barly been run for aobut 3,000$. its not going to be heavy towing just a little sled with some crap in it. for the heavy stuff we have a sportsman 400.

 

It's the wrong machine for the job, but the price is right, and if you're gonna do it....
You can go to a 13 front and 38 rear sprocket without changing the chain length. That helps a lot.
Any ATV tire place like Rocky Mountain ATV can get you any tires you need. Look them up on the web or call. They should also know what pipes are made for the Pred....I don't know if anyone makes a low end pipe?
Never heard of a trailer hitch for a Pred. Can you just tow that light sled off the grab bar?
I've never heard of tire chains for a Pred, but maybe some small automotive chains would work. How about just using screws in the tire, or ice studs?

Good luck, ...also you might ask your shop what a clutch replacement will cost?

 

ill try to finda heavy duty clutch after i blow out the stock. i found some chains for the tires though

 

do not put tires chains on... just stud them
with chains u cant go over like 30 mph...
u may say "well, i wont go over 30..." but trust me... when fishing gets slow... and there is a quad around... your gonna wanna go flying around... it happens to me EVERY time i go ice fishing... lol

 

how do the sport quads do on ice with studs?

 

haha, they do VERY well. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
