Good demo of securing a vehicle on a trailer. I like to go from the opposite point to the trailer crossing each strap and having the load work for itself to keep it secure.

Ever cross your straps. The suspension bounces and will ride up and it one breaks your strap will pull it sideways
i like those rims & tires on the deere :)

How would you size your straps, by working load or breaking strength? I am shopping for straps right now. Tractor Supply has some that are 1667# working load, 5000# breaking strength? Would these be adequate for a 1700# side-by-side or overkill?
Wouldn't it be safer to strap it through the tire? You're strapping it to the frame. Wouldn't it loosen the straps once you hit a bump? If you strapped the lowest point or maybe through the tire, the vehicle's suspension would still work, but the straps would still stay tight?

This is a good question. I now there are many trailers that have railing in the floor that is made for tire straps. From my experience of hauling a bunch of gators as a salesman, this has always been very efficient and when done correctly has never had any issues, even on our bumpy western Oklahoma roads. The key is making sure to get tension on all four corners that are all pulling down and outward. The tire idea may be good as well though. Thanks for watching!
Another great video as always Brent! Can you tell me what type of lift gate assist are on the trailer? I have a similar sized trailer and am interested in installing some sort of lift gate assist. Thanks

Tie at the tire is the best way to
I’m glad someone did a video on how to tie down a side by side on a trailer, c’mon it’s just common sense and knowledge that all it takes but I know in this day and age you have to make a video on how too
can you PLEASE start doing more gator videos :)

hello...I would like to know where I could get tires like you have on the Gator in this video? Thanks!

These are the Predator heavy duty all-terrain tires and you can get them from 247Parts.com, your local John Deere dealer, and probably other tire dealers as well. I hope this helps and thanks for watching!
Never strap to the frame. Your suspension is going to bounce and break your strap. Always tie down the tire or as close to it as possible. Let your suspension work

This is good advice if you have the ability to do so. Thanks for the feedback!
Does the roof of the Gator need anything to keep the wind from loosening it or is this no problem?
@WesternEquipment
Жыл бұрын
On the newer gators with the bolted on roof I would not worry about it. If it is one with a clamped on roof then I would make sure to tighten my clamps and have an extra strap ready in case you have issues with one failing.
Best way to tie down is with tire bonnets. Everything else is second or third best.
What tires are on the John Deere!?

These are the new Predator Heavy Duty all-terrain tires! They are slick. Less road noise that the Maxxis Big Horns and a wider tire for more surface area to the ground. Thanks for watching and stay tuned for the walkaround and review of this gator.

If my UTV weights 2000lbs. I just need 4 straps of 1000lb breaking strength per strap in order to strap down my UTV safely. Trying to understand straps.

You need 2000 lbs of break strength when you add your straps together. You could have whichever mixture of straps you chose as long as when they are added together they are at or above 2000 lbs. I hope this helps and thanks for watching!

You need 4000 lbs of working load limit (NOT breaking strength). As a minimum, four 1000lb working load limit straps are needed. It gives you 2x safety factor. Once you exceed the working load limit, you are in uncharted territory with the straps.

A bit late but just an fyi the other responses are completely wrong. You need an aggregate WLL of 1/2 the overall weight of your load. So you need 1000# of WLL on your machine. That said the way he has the straps in this video, mounted from the trailer to the load reduces the WLL of the strap by 1/2. So you would need 4 500# WLL straps. Always a good idea to go above that but that is what is required. Also break strength is not WLL. WLL is typically 1/3 the break strength but the break strength is never used to determine proper load securement.
Can you tell me what size trailer that is? I have that same model of Gator and am looking for a trailer. Thx!
