About Misc. Accessories
This is where the practical extras for a UTV or ATV end up: tie-downs and straps, E-track plates, battery chargers, flashlights, spare tire mounts, wheel and tire assemblies and the specialty tools used for clutch and exhaust work. Owners shop here to get a machine onto a trailer, to keep a battery charged, or to find the right tool for one job.
Check how the listing describes the item. Cam buckle tie-downs are tightened by pulling the strap by hand, which is quick but gives less tension than a ratchet strap, and they are listed by width, length and hook type. E-track plates are anchor points that let tie-down fittings clip into a slotted rail.
Tools such as the drive clutch fixture and the sheave clamp tool are made for particular machines, so read which one the listing names. A spare tire mount like the one listed for certain Polaris RZR XP 1000 years is model-specific. A 1 amp battery charger is a maintenance-rate unit, so match the charger to the battery type.
Brands in this category include Fox, Texa, Hornet, Sedona and Woody's. See also Chemicals & Lube, Cleaning & Detailing and the parent group Accessories. Pick your machine in the Ride Finder at the top of the page for items that depend on the model.
FAQs on UTV and ATV tie-downs, chargers and shop tools
How do cam buckle tie-downs differ from ratchet straps?
A cam buckle tightens when you pull the free end by hand and releases with a lever, so it is fast but cannot apply as much tension as a ratchet strap. Cam buckles suit lighter loads, and ratchet straps suit heavier ones. Check the strap's rated load against your machine's weight.
What is E-track used for?
E-track is a rail or plate with evenly spaced slots that accept fittings with matching tabs. It creates secure anchor points for tie-downs in a trailer, truck bed or UTV bed. The floor plates in this category are one way to add anchor points to a flat surface.
Do I need special tools to work on a UTV clutch?
Some clutch jobs use special tools, such as a fixture to hold the clutch while you loosen it and a clamp for the sheave. These are made for specific machines, so match the tool to your make. Read your service manual for the procedure before you start.
What size battery charger should I get?
A low-amp charger, such as 1 amp, is meant for keeping a battery topped up over time rather than charging a flat one quickly. Choose a charger that matches your battery type and size, and follow the battery maker's instructions on charge rate.
Will a spare tire mount fit any UTV?
No. Mounts are made for specific machines and often for a range of years, like the one listed for certain Polaris RZR XP 1000 models. Check the make, model and years, and consider the added weight and how the mount attaches.
