Flat and or Dolly Towing

[Bister]

Transmission should be in 1st, as mentioned above and in the manual, then it is locked to the engine and can not turn.

bought mine 2 weeks ago, this manual states “not recommended”.

That was at the time they printed the manual. If you notice it says that. Look at post #20, that will be the update since the manual was printed I believe.

My manual says printed March/2018. So the manual from post #20 was updated and printed after? just wanted clarification, thanks.

That’s the update I got from my dealer two weeks ago. Not sure “when” it was updated. However, it is also inline with what was said in the AIMExpo video.

So I broke down and ordered some Warn 29062 hubs for the Roxor. I found them on line at a place in California for $160.99 plus $16.00 shipping. So I then called Summit racing who had them in stock in the Dallas warehouse. Summit price was $ 228.99. So I asked them if they price match. They did. So I ordered them at 8:50 pm. The girl in Atlanta I spoke with said if I say yes NOW, she can enter the order in the next 3 minutes I get them next day. I said HIT THAT BUTTON. LOL!

So delivered next day since I am in the Dallas area, $190.00. I checked UPS. Box left Summits warehouse at 12:03 am. Was on a UPS truck out for delivery by 3:15 am. HAhaaaaa. DAMNIT JIM! that's worth the extra $15 bucks. LOL!

Guess I will be installing them this weekend along with my Skid Plate for the Oil Pan.

Thanks for this post. I see this is a recent change, one that I think a lot of ROXOR owners are happy to see!

So just to be clear, what is the conclusion here? Seeing as there are two Roxor manuals in previous posts with vastly different statements on flat towing, what can we or have we concluded so far. Is it a model difference or just a manual update. A flat tow could save me a bunch of money on a trailer right away.

There is a service bullen or notice to dealers stating with the warn front hubs that it is ok to tow the roxor at up to 55 mph for an unlimited range. Someone will chime in with it.

Flat towed from Phoenix up the hill to Prescott. No issues. Installed the tower bar in the dealership parking lot. Used one of the bumper bolts and drilled a second. Tow bar was $60 on Amazon and I also got a set of tow lights for the trip home.

If you still have your roxor have you been able to still do this? With them being so new the law didn't know what they were. I also have a 2020 and usually trailer it everywhere. Bought a 22 blazer and with the trailer its over its towing and want to take it to Eastern AZ from Utah. Its street legal with a SXS plate.

Can you back one onto a tow buddy/dolly , with Warn Hubbs , No problem ???

 

[CJ2Rox]

Of course you can. I just never thought with with not being highway legal they can't be on the road

This is how I tow mine.

Yea thats generally how I would mine. Last yr I took it 700 miles to my father's using my Wife's dads Dually. Not sure i would trust my 24 yr old silverado to make the haul even though im keep up on Maintenance and PM repairs. Flat towing i didn't think we couod being that its not highway legal

FYI, in the state of Florida you Cannot flat tow or dolly tow a UTV (aka Roxor) unless the UTV is street legal.

This is my concern here. Ill im getting the mounts any day now to hook to my bumper to flat tow. Im very Rural in Northern UT. Ill try it out here but very hesitant on pulling into bigger cities or dragging it to Eastern Az
