hey guys,

I had a bit of a problem trying find a trailer here in brooklyn problem really is storing it someone so were working on that but till then i want to ride.

friend told me that he has piggybacked (quad sitting on the grabbar facing up) 3 quads before on a 5x9 open trailer but strapped them down really good, how safe is that and has anyone done it?

we tried uhaul for there 6x12 trailer but my friend has a 2000 jeep cherokee sport automatic and they said they wouldn't even let him pull it even though the truck can pull 5000+ pounds, they said hes car doesnt weight over 3,500 pounds etc.. i guess if something goes wrong they wouldn't pay for it...

any kind info would help...

i was at st. joe in missouri and there where three fourwheelers on there grabbars in the back of a truck it looked insane. im pretty sure it was a 6ft bed but im not positive on that

if you turned the gas off no it wouldnt leak out. Oil could leak backwards through the engine, depends how long it was on the grab bar though.

we put the ramps on the front of the trailer and pull the quad onto them and then put the other quad behind it. The quad on front had the front tires over the edge of the tralier. we jsut strap them down real good
