Expert Answers about ATV-UTV Tie Downs


  • Backing Plate for Use with Erickson ATV E-Track Tie-Down Kit EM09160
  • Erickson does offer a zinc-plated steel backing plate for use with their E-Track products like their ATV E-Track Tie-Down Kit # EM09160. Use part # e96RR. You can see this item's hole dimensions and spacing in the linked photo. Since your trailer deck is aluminum and this plate is steel you will want to isolate them to prevent galvanic corrosion between the two different metals. A coating of paint or other insulating material will do it.

  • Is There a Shock Kit Available for a Torsion Axle Trailer Carry UTV
  • I may have a solution for you to help control your UTV in a better manner than your current ratchet straps are doing when it's loaded on the trailer, but I'm not aware of any shock system available that will mount to torsion axles. We've had a lot of customers rave about the ShockStrap Ratchet Tie-Down Straps w Shock Absorbers - 2" x 9' - 2,000 lbs - Qty 2 # 297-9RSDB, which have shock absorbers built into the straps that keep them from loosening in conditions like you've mentioned. These...

  • Do You Make A Tonneau Bed Cover For Yamaha Umax Golfcart UTV?
  • I have a possible solution for you, however, we do not carry tonneau bed covers for your Yamaha Umax Golfcart / UTV. If you just wanted the cover for looks or to keep the cargo inside the bed, you could look into the universal Erickson Mesh Tarp and Truck Bed Cover - Heavy Duty - Black - 6' x 8' # EM57056. Keep in mind, this is not weatherproof, but is made of a mesh material to protect the cargo from sun and wind. I have attached a photo showing this cover being used on a small utility...

  • Available Erickson E-Track Wheel Chocks
  • Erickson offers only one size of E-Track wheel chock which measures 8-1/2 long x 6-3/8 wide x 4-1/2 tall. This is offered as a single chock under part # EM09162 and as a pair under part # EM09162-2. Erickson does offer a wheel chock and tie-down kit for ATVs, part # EM09160, which uses bolt-on chocks that attach directly to a trailer's deck (not to E-Tracks). With your finished floor setup this might be a better option.

  • Are Thule Easyline Trailer Kits Available?
  • We offer a few utility trailer kit options, but the Thule Easyline trailer kits were discontinued about about 10 years ago. If you are in the market for a lightweight trailer kit, I recommend looking at either the Detail K2 Mighty Utility Trailer, # K2MMT5X7, which is very similar to the older Thule Easyline trailers or the Detail K2 Multi Utility Trailer, # K2MMT4X6, which has lower sidewalls, but it includes a taller tailgate that can act as a ramp for 4 wheelers and ATVs. I've attached...

It comes with a shank that fits 2 inch hitch receivers and a pin and clip to secure the shank.
