I can't think of any other way unless you have some sort of reversed wheel wells to drive into but even then I would still want to have some sort of tie downs on there. What were you thinking?

 

We take our unit in and out of the trailer several times a day when we go to dealerships and these work great!! One on a front tire and one on the opposite rear tire. Once you have your tie down points installed in the trailer deck life is sweet.

As far as to happen on voice command, I'd recommend a mail-order girl that hasn't been empowered at all. :rofl3:

 

I just purchased one of these to use in my Toybox for my Rzr. (PE-WL400).

ProLocker Cargo Securement System

 

I just purchased one of these to use in my Toybox for my Rzr. (PE-WL400).

X2 on the Pro-Locker. Here is a pic of another member's setup:

Sounds like exactly what you're looking for. I got mine off ebay last summer for under $100.

 

Give this a look... Tie down system, tiedowns, wheel chock, The Tire Trap from utv concepts or there was a thread on here a while back that discussed a similar method usin trailer ProLockers... here's the link to that.

This is pinned and probably more secure than half of the yahoo straps those who are being critical use. For crying out loud, you guys ever leave a helmet in the bed of your pickup? how about a shovel? I'm sure you tie those down just in case you hit the brakes.

 

I can think of a couple different ways to accomplish what you're talking about, but none of them would actually secure the RZR to the trailer, they would only prevent it from rolling off the back. In most states I think you have to actually secure the load with some degree of confidence that the load wouldn't come off if there was an accident. A 1000 lb vehicle has a lot of inertia at 50mph, if you were to have an accident and your trailer flipped your RZR could become a projectile, which I tend to think would be frowned upon...

So here's what I do: I use one of these on the front of my trailer:
Erickson Re-Tractable, Ratcheting, Bolt-On Tie-Down Strap - 3,000 lbs EM51319 : Trailer hitch bike rack and trailer hitches - etrailer.com

I just pull it up to the little cross bar in the front of the chassis and hook it. Much quicker than wrestling with a regular ratchet strap, more than strong enough for the RZR (use two if you're worried about it...). I haven't figured out a way to mount one on the back of my trailer yet, but I'm working on it. For the time being I still use a regular ratchet strap on the back. I can have my RZR loaded and secured in about 5 minutes, and about the same to take it off.

 

did you ever see the hook up for a bass-boat drive and lock on try your boat trailer dealer or just look a a ranger boat !

 

The RZR S in the above photo is mine. The Prolockers are great and I still use them.

I don't worry about the haters that claim it's unsafe. The RZR has never moved on the trailer and I have tried. Any accident that would flip the RZR in the Prolocker would certainly snap any tie down as well.

Here is the thread on my install:

just tie it down ya lazy dog. if you had an accident and it came off the trailer, think of the damage it might do to someone else

 

Keep your comments to yourself hayfarmer, we've been down that road already.

Wow, when did we move to a fascist state? I'm pretty sure you live in the US, based on the pictures I can see of your license plate. Last time I checked we were still allowed to have our own opinions here, and express them as we saw fit. Much like you expressed yours about this prolocker thing. It's great that you like your setup so much, but there's no need to come on here being a douche when someone posts an opposing opinion.

Back on topic: That is a nifty device, and pretty reasonable, cost-wise. I think I paid $30 a piece for my retractable straps, and I'd happily pay double that for the ability to lock my RZR to the trailer if you can really find these for about $120. I'd still strap the back end down, but I'm a suspenders-and-belt kind of guy. Also, I'm pretty sure FMCSA rules require at least two anchor points when transporting a motor vehicle, which I would assume they would consider the RZR (or at least could, why take the chance of going to court to fight a ticket?).

 

It is the law in Arkansas that everything in the truck bed or on an open trailer must be secured with adequate devices. I once witnessed a riding mower come out of the bed of a pickup truck that was rolling over at 40 mph. It threw the 400 pound rider about 50 yards up the road, through the windshield of an oncoming car. Lots of gore and sadness, and a million dollar lawsuit that followed for the driver of the truck! Why take a chance?

 

I have 4" rings welded on the deck of my trailer .i just drive on them slide these locks on and i am done, they also prevent the crooks from going for a ride ....lol

 

Do it like a flat bed tow truck. Winch the front in, either trailer or RZR mounted, and tighten a rear strap with the winch.

Unless pushing the button on a winch controller is too much for you. :rofl3:

 

Here are some pictures of my King Quad loaded on the trailer. The RZR system is the same I just don't have pictures of the RZR. I lock the ball coupler first than I secure the front with the winch. If this system fails a bunch of other things have gone really wrong first.

 

ProLocker.....cant beat it for the $$. Paid $110 with free shipping to front door. I think I have lost more than $110 in straps over the last 10 years. Quality product, easy to install, and machine has not moved on trailer down some very rough roads.......and if you are paranoid....buy 2 and lock both wheels in....and never worry.

Cons.....had to do an easy grinding job on the ProLocker to keep it from rubbing on the A arm of the RZR S.

 

just buy an enclosed trailer, drive it in ,close the electric door and let the rzr bounce around in there!!!LOL

 

Mine is real simple..I chain my rzr front bumper to trailer..Real fast and easy..

 

Thanks all for the replies, some good ideas here. This Prolocker thing looks sweet, I'll definitely look into that.

I'll keep you posted on the eventual solution I come up (assuming anyone cares :rofl3

 

Not really. We just want the Casino bux for posting. :rofl3:

 

I just winch my rzr to the front of the trailer and it has never been a problem for me. Quick and easy.

 

Electro-magnets..........:rofl3:

 

The only problem i see with the prolocker is that unless it is easliy removable from the trailer, it takes up a lot of floor space for when you want to use the trailer for other things. Other than that, it looks it does what it says its supposed to do.

 

i think they have pins to pull and take em out....lol, at least thats what i remember reading last night.

ruff, was kiddin callin him a dog, but have you ever seen quads or sleds come off a trailer when not tied down? i have so i tie down extra so someone doesnt get hurt. thx flirzan for supportin me!! hahaha

 

I thought you were calling me a lazy Dog Hayfarmer....I apologize.

Ruff

 

A second winch at the rear and you're done

 

I was warned that using a winch as a tie down would shorten the life of the winch.

 

if you use a winch make sure it has a brake and doesnt leak back

 

Not sure anymore....check the links in my old post and see if they are any good anymore.
