Question about the supercrews.
Hey all, been awhile since ive posted, but im lookin at another blue oval, and had a few questions. First, will a 450 size quad fit in the back of a supercrew with the tailgate up? Whats the max tow with the 5.4? Any help is appreciated!

Well it doesnt really matter because i have a 6x14 trailor for me and my girlfriends quads, it would just be a perk if i was riding by myself locally if i could just throw it in the back of the truck. Im sure i will never reach max tow if i bought one, most i tow is 5,000 lbs.

just put the quad in the back. 5.5' bed won't shut...but the 6.5' beds apparently can. the tailgate would be fine IMO for the front of a quad to be on
Max tow for a properly equipped Screw is 9,200 I beleive...deduct 500 lbs from that (8,700 lbs) if you have the 18" or 20" rims option

I've hauled a 500cc Honda Rubicon in the back of a 5.5' SuperCrew with no problem whatsoever. Like was said above, I just had to leave the tailgate down. I had to do this every time in my '01 and even my SD because I kept a tool box in the bed. No problems. The cables on the tailgate are plenty strong if that is what you are worried about.

my wifes raptor will fit with room to spare in my 6.5ft box, but i can't get the tailgate up with my kingquad in there. it fits no problem though.

I'm guessing if it's a 450 sport quad, it will probably fit with tailgate up. If it's a utility quad, probably not.
No big deal, a tie down strap at each corner will keep it from going anywhere. ratchet straps are even better.

I actually have two quads i ride, kfx700, and a 07 yamaha wolverine 450 4x4. I dont take the kfx anywhere but up to my campsite, and when i go there i take the trailor cuz i take three quads up. But when i ride locally i like to just put the wolverine in the back of the truck.
