My new ATV Trailer / Truck box.

Post by Jason Bass »

I just wanted to share my new dog box with you. First off I got an old blown up Kawasaki 220 ATV. I then chopped it in half and put a tongue and 2" ball on it. I then welded a couple of brackets to it so I could mount an aluminum base. The aluminum base is where i mount my box to. I also wired in a brake light for night time driving. Then I built the box out of 3/4" ply wood, I used old highway signs. The box is large enough to hold 4 dogs. There is a removable divider in it to separate the dogs if need be. The front point of the box is the storage compartment where a guy can put your hunting gear. The rack on top is made of 1/2" conduit and is large enough for two dogs. The mat is a porous woven rubber that is great for traction. The box can be easily removed by taking out 4 bolts, then it can be put in your truck for hunts father away from home. The box is not to heavy, just awkward. I can take it on and off the trailer to my truck by myself by pulling up to my tailgate and sliding it in or out. But another set of hands makes it easy. I have been using the trailer for a few months now and it pulls easy and is very stable, even better loaded with the dogs. Thanks for looking.

Ya it pulls nice. I have a 400 artic cat and it will redline my speedo no problem. With the box off the trailer I can load both the trailer and box myself, but like I said the box is awkward and help is better.
