I was gonna post mine on here, but since it is an Arctic Cat it must be unworthy.

That's pretty sweet roughneck.

How do you like your A/C so far? I'm contemplating an ATV purchase but am undecided. Heard that A/Cs have reliability issues....any truth to that?

Why do you have the blind setup attached? Is it large enough for you to fish in when you set it up?

I have three ac quads very reliable 3000 miles on my first one and 1800m on the second,the third only has 300kms so verdict is still out on it but im sure its just as good. never been left stranded or towed home yet. the blind is the same as the ice shack they sell room for two inside one hole each .

Just got me a new 05 AC 400TBX, getting ready to get her modified for ice fishing this weekend. good to see more AC users on here.

I bought it locally for $49, but I found it on Shappell.com through their dealer locator for $59. I also added 2 more u-bolts to the mounting system to make it more secure. It looks like it is going to work awesome. I'll take some pics and post them later.

Robb - nice idea by Shappell. Do you think it could be modified with a sheet of plywood just to carry gear without the portable? I like the idea of having the gear above the height of the fender wells in times of slush, muck, etc. Maybe the way to go vs. those standard drop down racks. Thanks in advance.

gamefisher-Yes you could definately mount some plywood on there by drilling the metal frame for fastener holes. The nice part of the system is it allows me to carry two five gallon pails in front of my fishtrap.

what a nice way to get around, I use a Polaris 500 4x4 ,they all work great! beats dragging everything.

Here's my ride. I've added an auger carrier since the picture. I really like the drop down basket, you can fit 2 propane tanks plus a five gal bucket. It can be removed in a few minuets.
