Nice. How'd you get the front tires over the wheel wells? The backs look pretty tight.

I'm glad to see that can be done because we need to take a Gator from one farm to another about 1:30 hours away to rope some cattle (our horses aren't broke to rope yet, so we use a Gator ), and we need to take a squeeze chute on the flat bed. I thought we were looking at two trips for sure.

I think he was just playing like I was when I put a 14K 25 foot trailer and a 6,500 pound skid steer behind my Chevy S-10 in my avatar.

I secure the gator with 4 3000# straps (it doesn't move, at all)......on the front bumper I mounted two small boat rollers (they are made of hard rubber, I cut them down the center length wise and slid them onto the front bumper vertically) so that they are between the top of the bed and the bumper.....I still a few inches between the gator bumper and the rear glass......I have driven with this set up over 7 hours on the interstate without any problems at all (it actually works great).......I get over the wheel wells buy putting it in 4 wheel drive, it goes over with no problem at all.....here's a few pics when we went squirrel hunting a few weeks ago....

1st pick gator with sons little kawi in bed (just a fun pick so nobody have a fit over the kids all over the place)

and this is why we put the gator in the back of the truck.....we were able to put the 4 wheelers in the small trailer and leave the big one at home (dad, cousin and nephew in pic)
