    Tailgate feeder ATV bracket

    I bought a tailgate feeder on sale and decided I wanted to use it on my grizzly. I had 2" square tubing laying around so I got busy and welded up this bracket.

      Make sure you have something on the inside backing the bolt or it may pull itself off.

      A piece of flat bar would work well.

        Art mentioned that last night so I used one of the brackets it came with.

              I have a similar rig (same brand and size of feeder) for my Polaris but it really bounces around on rough roads and sometimes stops working. Have u experienced this? Anyway good job on the welding!

                  Inside that 90 at the bottom. Put a piece of 4"x4", 3/8 plate inside that angle. You'll regret if you don't.

                      How does it help?

                        50lbs of corn adds a lot of torque to the weld, it might crack over time. I can't remember if I put that brace there or not. Think I just welded 1.5" pipe to top of 2" square tubing. Only cause I had no square tubing left.

                              Added the support piece on the bracket and went for a test run. I'm very happy with it.
