Heavy-Duty, 4-Wheeler "Cargo Box"

Heavy-Duty 4-Wheeler Cargo Box ATV S “It lets us haul feed buckets tools fencing supplies and other stuff without worrying they’ll fall out We’ve found countless uses for it ” says Jesse White Powersville Mo about the heavy-duty cargo box he built to mount on back of any 4-wheeler with a cargo rack and rear hitch     He used scrap metal and the plastic lining out of an old cattle feed bunk to make the box The top clamps onto the ATV rack and is held tight by 2 bolts with wing nuts The bottom pins to the 4-wheeler receiver hitch     “It’s designed to reduce overhang stress on the 4-wheeler and results in minimum squatting when hauling a heavy load ” says White     “We use it mostly to haul buckets of calf feed The box is big enough to hold three 5-gal buckets If I need to I can even throw a calf in the box shut the lid and haul it home for doctoring ”     He found most commercial ATV carriers were lightweight and too complicated to put on and they only fit certain makes and models of 4-wheelers “Most of them bolt on with wing nuts in about 10 different places which is a hassle Also excessive overhang brings the 4-wheeler down even if it’s loaded with only a few pounds of cargo ” says White     “My cargo box has an angle iron frame so it’s built strong yet it’s lightweight since the box is plastic And it can easily be attached to any of the 4-wheelers on our farm ”     White says the hard plastic has held up even in cold weather “Our 2003 Honda Rincon has about 18 000 miles on it and the cargo box has always been on it ”         Contact: FARM SHOW Followup Jesse White 17330 160th St Powersville Mo 64672 ph 816 820-8394
