Loading Into My Truck
Hello All. Great to find this site.
We have an EZ-GO with a lift. Here it is. We love taking this cart on our camping trips and it used to fit in the bed of the F350 no problem. But I went to a 6" lift and the wheels and tires are now much wider. I'm pretty sure it won't fit between the wheel wells (but I haven't checked, yet). I used to just drive it up some ramps and into the bed. But how do I clear the wheel wells if it won't fit in-between? I'd hate to get stuck up there with the back wheels still on the ramps. Any good creative ideas for clearing the wheel wells; hopefully without stopping? Thanks |

Re: Loading Into My Truck
I got a F350 and a Club Car with a 6" lift and tires and it fits just fine. Has about 2 inchs of clearance. I take my cart with me all the time in the back of my truck. Got a 8' bed so I just set the park brake and shut the tail gate and go.

Re: Loading Into My Truck
I'm a Van Man and used to haul mine on a car hauler, but have since bought a 5x8 aluminum trailer with a ramp gate, best move I made.
I use it more hooked to the cart, doing yard work, hauling things around and with an old couch I can take my in-laws with me Nice all purpose deal. Welcome Aboard Barn! .. and Nice Cart!!! |

Re: Loading Into My Truck
I assume you measured it. A friend of mine cut some wood and made little ramps onto the fender wells for his quad so he could drive over them easily. Mine fit with room to spare, most full size trucks fit a 48" sheet of ply with a little room.
