  1. Here are some ideas.

    My fifth wheel is removeable from the back of my truck, when removed it is almost flush with the bed and it can hold alot of capacity. Maybe you can use similar anchor points.

    Some companies have a similar product that is similar to a roll back but they are heavy and costly. (I will try and post links later)

    ATVs can weight over 1000lbs when fitted with gear. Dry weights are around 800lbs now.

    If the device can not only lift the ATV but secure it against falling out and theft that would be a plus. Maybe it can even support the weight of the ATV on the tailgate.

    Good luck with the project.

  2. Make sure the battery is 100% sometimes they cause it to act up. Next take it out and clean up the connection with some compressed air and apply dielectric grease. Finally as a last resort you can take it apart and attempt to dry it out. This is a common problem.

    PS I hope to see you at the lost trails this weekend.

  3. Unplug the actuator and see if the clicking stops.

    It is common for the seals to go on the actuator and for them to cycle in and out as you describe. If you unplug it and the cycling stops then I would suggest replacing it or if you are handy enough take it off the quad and take it apart. Watch for the springs flying everywhere but once it is apart dry it out and seal with some good RTV silicone. Should be good as new. If you are not comfortable with taking one of these apart because of all of the small parts either pull it out on the bench and take your time or just plop a new one in. They are easy to get on and off.

  4. I may be up your way riding this weekend. And of course the Hallstead Poker run is coming up soon. If you ever want to get out on one of the rides let me know.

    Here is a list of the mods that I have done to mine to give you some ideas, same quad as yours.

  5. I have a 700 BBK in mine and love it! Give speedwerks a call and they should have everything.

    There is also a 750 kit out there but you need the top end from a 700H1.

    The only issue I am having right now it that I go through one starter a year with the new HC piston and cam.

    Feel free to ask any questions as you are ordering the stuff.

  6. Well the winds were the worst part of the storm here in PA and even they were not bad. Just a little over 3" on the rain gauge but winds steady around 28-30 mph. A few limbs came down and the power went out but not too much damage.

    I hope all of those in the direct path either got out or are OK. I don't think it was as bad as they stated but still life threatening.
