We have lots of threads on custom lights, racks, mounts, plow frames, body's etc.

But I was curious to know what custom made ATV attachment accessories or hacks people have made. Feel free to post up pics too.

I am interested in pull behind mower. Has anyone made use of thier lawn-landscape mower and fabricated it to their tow hitch? Doesn't seem to hard to do? Leaf vaccum?

Regards,

R'

I've made my own bumpers from 1 1/2" x 1/4" wall steel square tube, winch mount from 1/4" plate steel, tool boxes front and rear from plywood/fiberglass and topcoated with roll on bedliner.(look very store bought!) Oversized CV joint guards from diamond plate and a few other guards here and there. Back rest, Made my own tire buster that fits into the hitch of the truck. Also have a 50"swisher mower for the quad, no mods needed.

Not much of an accessory but I managed to come up with this custom 2 in. rear receiver hitch a couple years ago...

Nice job guys. Well I hope to have my workshop built before the end of the month. The cool thing is that I can play all winter, lol. Only limited by money and imagination...:-)
