We've been looking at full blown toy haulers but for now my little 12' flatbed does the trick. I like it because it's for hauling alot of different stuff, lawn mowers, lumber, etc.

we got the 1500 and it doesnt have the beefy shocks like the 2500..hopefully next month wen we trade it in we can get the 2500 power wagon

I had an '04 1500 4x4 and although it was a decent truck it didn't hold a candle to this one. I had horrible issues with the rearend on the '04. I was sad to see it go because I think it was a better looking truck than my new one. The Power Wagons are cool I think you'll like it.

Anyway here's a shot of my old one.

I haul mine with an 03 F-350 7.3 4 door lariet. I have a 69 Bronco on 42" Swampers that I play with too. I needed something that wouldn't have an issue towing the Bronco. It doesn't even feel a trailer full of quads behind it lol

I usually just lower the air bags in the back and load it up with ramps. It is a 2007 Chevy 2500HD Duramax with Allison Transmission. Dana 60 straight axle conversion, Kelderman Air Ride 6 to 16 inch lift. 40 inch Toyo Open Country Mud Terrains with 22 inch xD Rockstar wheels. Don't have pics of the quad but its a 2004 YFZ 450 Special Edition with a HMF Exhaust, Jet Kit, and Intake.

It's apart at the moment to change the axles and suspension set up. It is sitting on Dana 60s, 6 inches of lift with a lot of trimming. 302 that just died on me, NP 435. 5.89 gears, 42" Swampers and Hummer Beadlocks

They are a bit big for what I need but they'll do. After looking at that pic I realize how much work I still need to do on it lol

I went through school for welding, brother is a machinist and close buddy does sheet metal work. Should be good to go as soon as I get time

Not sure how I killed the 302. I noticed it running rough on the even cylinder side. I checked compression and all but the #2 cylinder were good. #2 didn't make the needle on the gauge move. All valves are actuating fine. I think I got a hole in a piston somehow. It's an odd break. Still trying to find a scope to have a look inside. Sad part is that it runs great other than that. It hold 45 psi on oil pressure at an idle and never gets hot. I just don't want to risk more damage so, I'm finding out what's wrong before I run it again. Ok, hate to do this but I'll have to quit the thread hi-jack now. I'll start another thread about other offroad toys

I got to see that

The picture of the 69 Bronco makes me miss my 68 Bronco.. My Bronco was all stock, even had the corny looking hub caps, three on the tree (column shifter)..

But one day up in the mountains my Bronco decided it wanted to roll down the hill and over a 100 or so foot drop.. Hey I had to go real bad.. I guess I forgot to do something before leaving the truck...

Sad day that was..:sad:

@ this point.. nothing.. sold my truck for an 06 amzda3 -- quad chills @ my girls house.. next to her rotty's doghouse.. heh

Have just been putting mine in the truck, but makes loading for camping trips and such super tight. Hoping to get a small trailer this summer. The "why" is because I don't have anything else. lol

      Good morning, I am new to the forum. I'm 75 years old and love getting ATVs back to usable condition. I particularly like the 2006-2009 Arctic Cat 250 Utility. I currently own 6. The 2006 I am working on only has reverse and low gear. The "drive shaft" in the transmission is completely stripped where the high gear would mesh. Has anyone on here replaced the shaft. I'm told I have to split the case. I was hoping that someone on here could let me know how hard it will be. I already have it stripped down to where the shaft coming in from the clutch side is the only thing left. I was hoping I could just remove the driven clutch and drive it out from there. Directions say different. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

      I just bought a 1984 Suzuki LT185 ATV and am looking for the OWNER’S manual. ( not a service manual) 
      I contacted Suzuki Canada but they have no paper or digital copies in their archives. 
      Does anyone possibly have a digital copy they’d be willing to share?
