I got Strapinno straps ......cool as hell they retract so you never have leftover strap to deal with and never have to rewind the strap! So FAST AND SIMPLE!!!
Thank you! I have been really grinding trying to get some good videos out. Some of my videos are finally starting to get some views. I really appreciate the feedback.
I had to re-upload this video because the original video became corrupt somehow. Sorry about the new notification for a video you may have already seen.
I just bought a 2018 YXZ SS, I had these straps saved in my Amazon account, after watching the video I just purchased them, I’m new to the whole SXS thing so your videos are super helpful, I also live in Michigan and look forward to riding soon in Gladwin or St Helen
Awesome! Glad you like the videos. We have a ride this Saturday in Michigan. Twisted UTVs Operation Freedom. Should be a fun ride if you want to join. facebook.com/events/s/operation-freedom/1102062387040411/
I was looking into that ride yesterday, unfortunately I just had surgery and won’t be able to get on the YXZ for about a month but plan on doing a lot more things like that next year. Thanks for the info
So I’m looking to put these on my trailer which by the way is almost exactly like the one in the video, but I’m wondering about the small diameter of the bolt holes, they seem pretty small for such a big job. Did you just use them the way they come from the factory? I’m gonna go buy the bolts to put them on today. Thanks for the info in the comments and on your videos, definitely helps out someone who is new to this.
Been using a custom engineered system similar to this since 1989 for SCCA race cars. Our trailers have been inspected by motor carrier cops in several states with never an issue. The only problem we have had in over 30 years was a flat tire that allowed the strap to slip off the tire. No harm was done as the remaining three straps did their job.
Awesome! Mine work excellent. The only issue I have found so far is that they are difficult to use if snow gets packed in the clamping holes in the winter.
I use Supertrac (aka L track) on the sides of the trailer with tire bonnets for the front and Supertrac lasso tie downs for the rear. I have three machines and therefore need to be flexible.
I have the same system for the exact same reasons. Only difference in technique is I have both ratchets facing each other technically pulling the car into the center of the trailer. On a few occasions in the past, I have found that despite how tight I ratcheted the strap and how many wraps around the drum, the strap worked its way off of the wheel. At that time (on a different SxS) I solved that problem using a bungee cord to hook onto the strap at the top of the tire and ran it through the wheel and hooked it to the other side of the strap keeping it centered. Basically pinching the strap between the hooks of the bungee cord. I later moved to using adjustable size wheel bonnets. In the end, it's a great way to secure your side by side and let the suspension of your buggy do the work to suspend your trailer. Especially if you have a solid axle with no leaf springs. Ps. If you have finally gotten that larger trailer, I hope you kept the small one for the times you want to go out with just one buggy.
Great tips! Yeah I still have this trailer. I’m looking for a new trailer big enough for 2 SXSs. I’ll probably still keep this one because it’s really handy.
I use the same system but have made a few adjustments over the years. 1. have at least one complete wrap around the drum of the rachet otherwise the strap can come lose 2. use a rubberized sleeve or 2-3 smaller sleeves that the strap goes through and rest against the tire to create a bit more friction to prevent any possible strap slip
I love them too. I have never had one come loose. I did recently run into an issue where the brackets were packed with snow and I had to use a screwdriver to clean the snow out to get the clip in. Everything is more difficult in the snow though.
Bought these just 2 days ago. Arrived today great product thanks for the video. As usual your tips come through. When I have a decision to make your videos do my homework for me...:)
Great video !! I have the rail system with wheel baskets . Works pretty well but like the points you stated of the chocks . I haul a lot of motorcycles and used those trailers the weakest point on that particular trailer is the latches. On long trips they bend and risk the tailgate falling while hauling. Thanks for the great video.
Only problem with that Erickson setup and others like is if you use your trailer for more then just trailering your atv/sxs it’s nice to have a flat floor to be able to haul things like plywood or drywall. I do the same thing but with 1/4 inch drings from amazon that has a bracket with two holes to bolt to trailer floor .I place one dring in the front and rear of each tire then put a ratchet strap over the centre of each tire and tighten each strap down . My method does the same thing and allows me to fold the dring over and still have a flat floor
I have 2 other larger trailers that I usually use. This week I picked up some barn siding and it would have been nice to use my smaller sxs trailer but I didn’t because I didnt want to have to put boards in so that the wheel chocks wouldn’t dent the siding. I think next time I will go with the flat adjustable track. I like the chocks because it does hold the machine in place better and really helps loading but I would like my trailer to be more versatile.
Hello Sir, been enjoying the 10 degree weather while breaking the new 21' 3-pedal car in. when ever possible... really like your mounting system, so consider a copy cat in the beautiful White Mountains of Arizona! Thanks for the research and video once again... Clean and neat setup... Ordering this week. regards, cb
This setup is so quick and awesome. I did notice in the winter that sometimes snow packs in the slots. In an enclosed trailer it’s not an issue but on an open trailer you have to clean out the slots every once in a while.
Nice OBS! I own one as well. One thing to consider is to lock the suspension from moving. The suspension moving while towing is essentially wear and miles on your shocks. Maybe it's no big deal. I'm sure there is controversy over it. Lol
Thank you! Yeah I think it’s easiest on the suspension not to have it compressed when strapped down. I’m sure the suspension moving might cause some wear though. When they ship new units they are strapped down pretty tight. Who knows I guess.
I had one bounce off recently but the other 3 held tight. I noticed this happened when I lined the machine up poorly in the chocks and the tire was a bit off center. The chocks are nice to hold the machine in place but limit what the trailer can be used for. It’s a love/hate thing with the chocks.
These look like a great product! My only concern is that they rely on small bolts, going through a wood floor. This is where I see it going bad, in a few years. Other than that, definitely something to keep in mind for my next setup!
I love this system however I ran into a huge over looked problem with the system. I have a 28’ trailer that I put 3 four wheelers and a SxS on. Well i bought enough to tie down every tire. Yeah when I got everything bolted on and I stood back and looked. I quickly realized that my trailer was now useless for anything other than hauling our toys. This would be a stand alone system if they put the wheel chock on a hinge, and if not in use, you could lay it flat.
I have a 350 rancher by the time you get your front two wheels tied down I have already tied you atv down put the gate up and getting ready to go two D rings in dark with chain long enough to go on ball and winch on front D ring and ratchet on front just encase wrench brake let's go.
Good set up.. but just a thought.. if you wreck and break an A arm where the wheel is off.. you better have some hook type tie downs to connect somewhere else
that is true. I usually carry a box of ratchet straps in the truck at all times. That is an important thing for anyone interested in over the wheel straps to think of.
Nice. Good strapping method. Question on trailer size. I have a 6' x 10' and wonder if that SXS would fit. Looks like you have a few inches in the front, and at least a foot and half in rear. I don't have the rear ramp so the body could extend beyond the rear of the trailer. Based upon the wheelbase, it should fit.
I think it would fit especially if you don’t have the ramp on the back. Mine is a 6x12 and I have all of 2 ft behind the yxz. I never really measured to see if it truly measured 12 ft long though. The yxz is only 10’3”(123”) long you might be good even with the ramps.
Nothing wrong with having a trailer to move our toys.. My only reason i go with the dual axle set ups every time is the safety if you get a blow out the trailer and toys wont go sending. They typically put cheap tires on them too.
This one has always been a temporary trailer. I finally have to YXZs so now I'm looking for a dual axle car hauler. It would be nice to have extra tires to limp it to wherever I need to get a tire or tire repair.
I would put your machine on the trailer where you want it to sit. Then place the chocks down, mark em and pull machine back off the trailer. Then fasten the chocks to the trailer.
Great video/channel, lots of great information!!! My 2023 XTR is on order and is expected to be here in March. That said, what are the "center to center" wheel measurements for both front and rear? (Assuming your setup is still stock dimensions). Trying to get my trailer setup before it arrives. Any information you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
@@FilthyKnobsOffRoad thanks for the link much appreciated, great info to have. Are you running 29" tires? If so what is the distance between your front chock sets so they "cradle" the tire properly? I know the center to center measurement is 55" between the the left and right wheels, I'm just looking for how far apart to space each front "chock set". Can't wait til my 23 gets here in March🤣
My brief experience with using these type of tire center straps is that even when strapped tightly the SxS tires wonder after the trailer bounces and the straps have to be re-adjusted, very annoying.
I have not had any issues with them. I have made probably 20+ trips with them so far at about 3 hours per trip and they have worked really well. I have had one come off recently but it was due to the latch not being properly clicked in. I have heard some issues with over the wheel straps but I believe the chocks help keep the wheels in place and having all 4 tires tied down instead of 2 as the kits intend helps keep the strap on the wheels. I do wish that they went around the wheels on each side like a basket style over the wheel tie down to make it just look safer.
These are great but they’re not easily moved for if you’re hauling someone else’s or if you buy a different one it’ll be different but I suppose I could just ratchet them down your normal old fashion way
Im not familiar with scout brackets. I did google them. That does look like a really good solution. I have never seen those before. Thank you for sharing.
According to the online dimensions it should fit length and width wise. Make sure you have clearance on the trailer to open the doors. I have a trailer that I have to climb out of a side window because the door won’t open.
I like your video. How tall are these yellow stoppers ??? Thinking of making some useing wood . Place regular tie down straps hooks on each side of wheel. Also use a regular ratchet tie down on each tire
I agree. The straps on this kit are a bit short. You can tuck it in a little bit but there is not much extra to wrap up like I usually would with a ratchet strap. I haven’t had one come loose yet but it only takes once I guess.
Doesn't this damage the tires? Short ride might be ok, but if you have then tied down compressed for a couple of hours or more would damage tires I would think.
I’ve never had any issues. I’ve left them on over night many time and the tires feel fine. You don’t have to crank them down really hard. I believe these cause less damage to the tires than normal straps do to the suspension.
I really dont think so. The YXZ is around 64" wide and if the trailer is actually 5ft (60") wide then that is definitely too narrow. I believe the trailer length is too short short as well. The yxz is just over 10ft. It really depends on the actual measurements of your trailer and what it has for sides or railing. My 6x12 trailer is about as small as I would want to go. It is really tight around the gate opening of the trailer and there isnt much room on either side of the yxz so you have to be pretty precise driving up on the trailer.
I paid $1200 for my trailer. I would say most SUVs could pull this trailer with an ATV on it at highway speeds no problem. Might want to check the tow rating of your vehicle just to be safe.
Like your set up. I was thinking about a dual axle trailer for my YXZ, now I may have to rethink that. I run a similar tie down set up in my U-haul as a stealth camper. You can check it out on my cousins CZcams page DJ Sunday Rides. I just got my Krash cage delivered the end of last month. Man you're right that thing is beautiful! $2400 delivered to California. Also love the Tesseract box, to bad they don't make it for the 2016. Like your content, Subbed.
I checked out your U-haul camper setup. That is awesome. It looks really cleaned compared to the buses and cargo trailers I have seen converted to campers. I will have to look into one of those. I have been looking for a toy hauler but this solution would be cheaper and save me from having to buy a bigger truck. Thanks for the sub and thanks for letting me know you like my videos. Ive been putting a ton of work in for very little results so It means a lot. I subbed to the DJ Sunday Rides channel. There is a lot of really good content on the channel.
@@FilthyKnobsOffRoad Awesome! We are from NW Indiana but we have a place in Cadillac Michigan. This is our first year with a side by side up there. If you have any recommendations that would be great!
The trailer dimensions are 5.5ft x12ft. The yxz dimensions are: Overall Length - 122.8 in OR 3119 mm Overall Width - 64 in OR 1626 mm Weelbase - 90.6 in OR 2301 mm

I used these on the car hauler trailer i use for my sxs. I recommend using grade 8 bolts and including a metal plate on the backside.
yeah that's definitely a good Idea.
the etrac will tear and fail long before you break a bolt

Thank you! I have been really grinding trying to get some good videos out. Some of my videos are finally starting to get some views. I really appreciate the feedback.

Yeah I would definitely use large fenders or a plate to back the wood.
i stepped up my bolt size and i used C channel inder the trailer and used spring nuts
Like idea of extra reinforcement underneath.bought a set from Cabela's same set up
Trailer = 1,500 lbs
SXS = 1,500 lbs
Gvwr = 3,000 lbs
The Math = Maxed out.
Its only as solid as the wood you've attached it to. If the etrack bolts are only through the floor board you dont have much strength.
Thanks for sharing! Great information!
You’re welcome and thanks for watching!

Yeah it does limit the purpose of the trailer. I think I might try an E track system with similar over the wheel tie downs on my next trailer.

Any tips on measuring and installing the chocks?
I would put your machine on the trailer where you want it to sit. Then place the chocks down, mark em and pull machine back off the trailer. Then fasten the chocks to the trailer.
Some states require that trailer license plates be illuminated after sundown.
That is true. I never thought of that.

Yeah they kinda make your trailer useful for a single purpose. They work incredibly well and quickly at strapping down your SXS/UTV though.
Scout Brackets allow you to tie down utv or atv in less then one minute.
Im not familiar with scout brackets. I did google them. That does look like a really good solution. I have never seen those before. Thank you for sharing.

bro, how he picked up the trailer💪💪
When you are a thick boy like me you don’t need to go to the gym to get muscle. Lifting yourself out of chairs is a workout lol.
do you know the weight of the trailer? what is the toal length and width of the unit as well? Tx - good instructional
It’s a 6’x12’ trailer that weighs just under 1,000 lbs I believe. The yxz is 123” long and 64” wide. Thank you!
those are the cats meow
They are great
Can you get away using a 5x10 trailer for that Yamaha?
I really dont think so. The YXZ is around 64" wide and if the trailer is actually 5ft (60") wide then that is definitely too narrow. I believe the trailer length is too short short as well. The yxz is just over 10ft. It really depends on the actual measurements of your trailer and what it has for sides or railing. My 6x12 trailer is about as small as I would want to go. It is really tight around the gate opening of the trailer and there isnt much room on either side of the yxz so you have to be pretty precise driving up on the trailer.
What did you pay for your trailer and can I tow with a Nissan SUV and a ATV and the mph on the Highway
I paid $1200 for my trailer. I would say most SUVs could pull this trailer with an ATV on it at highway speeds no problem. Might want to check the tow rating of your vehicle just to be safe.
@@FilthyKnobsOffRoad Speed rating is on the tires. The trailer doesn't care how fast you go, it's all in the tires.
Like your set up. I was thinking about a dual axle trailer for my YXZ, now I may have to rethink that. I run a similar tie down set up in my U-haul as a stealth camper. You can check it out on my cousins CZcams page DJ Sunday Rides. I just got my Krash cage delivered the end of last month. Man you're right that thing is beautiful! $2400 delivered to California. Also love the Tesseract box, to bad they don't make it for the 2016. Like your content, Subbed.
I checked out your U-haul camper setup. That is awesome. It looks really cleaned compared to the buses and cargo trailers I have seen converted to campers. I will have to look into one of those. I have been looking for a toy hauler but this solution would be cheaper and save me from having to buy a bigger truck. Thanks for the sub and thanks for letting me know you like my videos. Ive been putting a ton of work in for very little results so It means a lot. I subbed to the DJ Sunday Rides channel. There is a lot of really good content on the channel.
Where do you ride in Michigan?
Northern lower peninsula mainly. Houghton Lake, Kalkaska, Saint Helen.
@@FilthyKnobsOffRoad Awesome! We are from NW Indiana but we have a place in Cadillac Michigan. This is our first year with a side by side up there. If you have any recommendations that would be great!
All low trailers need the license plate on the gate.
I agree
