Poor Man’s ATV Cargo Hold-Downs.

Polaris “Lock and Ride” mount studs and eye bolt/loops are about $8 to $10 each from Polaris.

I found these from Grip Pro ATV Anchors on ebay, for about $3 each. Package of 6.

I couldn’t buy the eye bolt, T-nut, and washer for $3. Let alone adding in the fancy rubber bushing if I could buy them– And I can’t, I’ve looked at everything i can find available, trying to improvise these things!

Work percectly fine, can’t see them letting go under any nornal use. I can crank them in, and pull with all I got, both arms and not budge them.

Lifetime replacement warranty, and made in the USA too!

With my custom rear tray/box I only had the 4 front most outer holes available. Then with the gun boot mounted to one of those, just 3. I used 3 of the 6 I bought in those holes.

1 of them I customized with a threaded stud to mount the boot. That left 2 for the front rack.

But, Amazingly, as proud as Polaris is of that system, they didn’t add them to the front rack/box lid. Probably to not interfere with the box’s space/capacity. But still, I’d expect them around the edges, or corners.

2 eye bolts from the two left over Grip Pro anchors, spacer nuts, and nylock nuts, put this on the front most corners.

Had two smaller 1/4″ shank eye bolts in my hardware bins. Stacked nuts for spacing, and cut them off. Put on the same as the others, spacer nut on top, nylock on the bottom, on the rear corners.

Also, added one smaller eye bolt I had with heavy wood/lag bolt threads to he top of the gun boot mount, to make up for the one I lost to its mounting.

Actually stuck another one onto the nose of the boot bracket too. Not sure what for, it just looked like a good place for one.

Need to make a small bracket and loop/eye that can mount to the studs that hold that gun boot mount, for the times its not mounted.

Between the cargo trays, and these, im pretty sure I’m not losing anything any time soon!
