you should be able to buy insurance on it. after all they sell snow mobile insurance, boat insurance, wheel house insurance(basically a RV camper type policy) so I don't see why they wouldn't offer ATV insurance. Just ask your agent.

I got mine insured. It cost $5 a month so it is covered if anything happens to it.It saves on the home owners policy if you would have a something happen to it.

I just got my policy and it was only $25 a year. Extra bodily injury and Property damage is included.

Heck ya I insure my wheeler, dang thing cost more then the truck and trailer combo that hauls it...and I have little baby 400. Couldn't imgine not having insurance as ATV prices reach into the several thousands.

Funny story:

A few years back the ice was getting spooky so the decision was made by me and a buddy to leave the trucks on shore. After some time staring at our two old trucks on shore it occurred to me we drove $12,000 worth of ATVs onto the ice to save two $500 trucks…priceless.

Funny as heck! I cant believe how many $45,000 boats I see getting pulled by $500 trucks. Some arent even worth the amount of gas they would have in the tank.

All my toys are fully insured. If possible I insure them for more than they are worth because I usually have accessories on them and I dont want to get caught short.

If ya are adding things over stock condition make sure you notify your agent as they might not be covered unless you endorse your policy.....for example for a motorcycle policy with the family insurance company they won't cover your chrome/saddle bags/radio/ferrings/sissy bars/custom paint/windshield and some other things if your policy isn't endorsed.

For sure! I totaled a boat years back Boat replacement value was $14,000. Lost/destroyed gear during the accident was another $12,500. Thankfully my agent sold me the gear coverage.

Yes, wheeler insurance for sure.

I have insurance on everything that I won. No reason to have a loss due to a policy not in effect.

Jonny mentions something all should look into that own a boat.

Check your contents insurance as you may be shocked how much value one has in tackle along.

    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
    • reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
