Must-Have UTV Accessories
Having the right UTV accessories on your adventures can make all the difference. A cargo box is a must-have for any UTV owner who needs extra storage space for gear or equipment. Another important accessory is a light bar, which can help you navigate dark trails and enhance visibility during night rides. Whether you're going on rugged off-road expeditions or simply need some extra storage space, investing in the right UTV accessories can help you get the most out of your outdoor adventures.
Winch
It’s easy to forget or forgo the winch because really there are only specific instances in which it’ll come in handy. But a lot of these instances are emergencies, like when your vehicle is stuck and you need some way to haul it back to the road. You can’t always plan when you’re going to need one, and if you don’t have a winch handy, then you’ll just be stuck. Plus, a winch can be helpful for certain projects, like when you’re removing debris. Whatever the reason, it might be a good idea to have a winch attached to your side by side at all times. You can buy one with a wire or a synthetic cord so you have varying levels of strength to choose from and you can even find a motor that’s going to work best for your needs.
Cargo Box
These boxes come in a variety of sizes and styles, making it easy to find one that fits your specific needs. In general, your UTV is going to be able to handle a lot of extra weight, but sometimes keeping all your supplies contained is going to be tricky. You probably shouldn’t rely on any balancing acts with the back seats or on your lap, so consider instead installing a cargo box in the back of the vehicle. This will give you a protected place to put tools so they’re contained and won’t make driving around more difficult for you. Plus, if the weather starts to turn sour, an enclosed, hard box will protect your things from the elements, so you might consider keeping a change of clothes or even food and water in there as well to keep these things from getting ruined.
Light Bar
During the summer, you probably won’t have any trouble finding some sunlight to show you the way, but if you use your utility vehicle all year round, at some point you’ll probably find yourself working when it’s too dark to see very well. Or maybe you thought you planned accordingly and got caught out after dark. Either way, having a light bar attached to your ride can give you an easy way to find your way home again. This will be particularly helpful if you’re in an unfamiliar area. We recommend LEDs as they’re brighter and more efficient so you won’t have to change them as often and they won’t drain your battery as much.
Owning the right UTV accessories can truly transform your outdoor experiences, providing you with the ability to traverse rough terrain and explore new landscapes. With the addition of a cargo box and light bar, your UTV can become even more enjoyable.
