Anyone know if I can get a commander on a 7 ft sled deck, or do I need to buy an extension

Rule of thumb maybe...I have a 2014 Maverick XMR with 32" Silverbacks. It just fits on my ATV trailer which is 8'6". Keep in mind that my tires hang over the front and back of the deck...Hope this helps!

If it does work it will be veeerrrry tight I would think. Remember bigger tires and bumpers take up more room than most people realize.

I have lots of them,but I want to go pick up a commander. No idea of its measurements or if the wheelbase may fit but the bumper wont allow it to fit. Thanks for inputting your wisdom.
I have seen a couple pics of them loaded sideways as well. maybe that will work

I googled it yesterday and I think the wheelbase is 6'4" so you might just have to talk a dealer into letting you try it.

Pretty sure a sales man will hold the end of a tape for you if it meant a sale. I got a dodge long box and my ranger 900 the rear tires sit on the tail gate when it's in the box. The commander is pretty close to the same size maybe a bit shorter so I would think it would be very tight to fit up there. If one strap came loose you might have serious problems.

I see your in gp if you where closer I would offer to build you an extension and ramp that would work

I've done this as well when I brought it home from the dealership... Never again
Do yourself a favor and buy a SxS ramp for the back of the truck instead of a deck.

and 10' UTV ramps.... And if you're towing a trailer you need a hitch extension... I've done both methods and a SxS ramp is much better IMO.

I use the telescoping ramp from the deck & pull my TT with no hitch extension. Works fine & I already have it & use it for my sled. If your getting something just for your sxs then by all means get a ramp, but why would I make things more complicated than they need to be.

No issues when your maneuvering around with that set up? I would like to do that with my maverick but thought I would clip the front of the trailer.

On this trailer it is very close, my Old trailer there was lots of room. I guess it depends on the trailer.
X2. I couldn't do that on my trailer! I dented the front of mine, turned a little too sharp. Glad it works on yours, cause it sure didn't work on mine. Thus the reason for the SxS ramp...
Ya I used my sled ramps to load my SxS for a bit too, until they bent when loading...
