Can Erickson ATV E-Track Tie-Down Kit EM09160 Be Used on Front Wheels of ATV
Question:
Instructions say to put them on the rear wheels but it seems easier to use them on the front wheels. Is there any reason why I should not use them on the front? Im using them for a side-by-side.

The Erickson ATV E-Track Tie-Down Kit # EM09160 is intended to secure your trailered 4-wheeled vehicle at the rear tires. The chocks are to be mounted in front of and behind the rear wheels as shown in the linked video and photo. If they were installed on the front tires the rear of the vehicle could lift up off the trailer deck in a hard-braking situation.
