Hello everyone. I finally took the plunge and picked up a 19 X3 X DS. It's my first sxs, and I'm loving this thing! I'm looking for hauling suggestions on a 2012 F350 8' flat bed. I've seen the racks that place the front tires over the cab, but I'm not really a fan of those due to high center of gravity and crosswind issues. What I would like to do is fabricate some bed extensions, so the sxs is pulled tight to the headache rack, and the rear tires are sitting on the extensions. Has anyone done anything like this? I would like to still pull the boat behind this set up, its a 79 Nordic jet with a BBF, so it sits very low and I wouldn't have any interference issues when turning. Pictures would be great! Thanks in advance.
Maverick hauling solutions?

I ended up purchasing a UTV loading ramp from Toy Up industries. Yes, it loads over the cab, but I have no issue with the height. It places the machines weight on the middle of the truck. It allows me the ability to take two SXS for riding as I load the second one in my Eclipse travel trailer. You get very used to the ramps after one load, but it scares you the first time. I always have my seat belts on when doing it.

Cal16-I'm not sure I understand the difference between a ******* welder, and a fabricator. I'd consider myself the first, and maybe the second if I am getting paid.:smile:
JonesXRC-Thanks for the link, that is the stuff that will keep this thread going. Might have to check into that design, what truck do you have it on?

That would what i would try to look into first and see if you could either modify it or have them build one.

I load the toyup rig on a Nissan Titan XD and I also use it on a Ford F250 long bed. It fits a conventional 6'4" bed or a full 8'. $2000 was the cost from Toy Up. They have a number of dealers out there. Just go to their website to find one. Shipping was $500 to Texas, so $2500 all in. Best part for me, I get to take two Can Am Mavericks and my 21' Eclipse Trailer in one package. The second one goes in the trailer that is built to take a 64" or 72" Maverick.
