Will Polaris RZR fit in Gray Wolf 19RR?
I really like the 19rr and have a Polaris RZR that I need to haul, I am wondering if anyone knows if they will fit or has hauled one?

You didn't say what model RZR you have. From the spec's I found online, a stock 50" with no aftermarket wheels or brushguards would fit with only 1 or 2 inches of clearance. My standard with brushguards wouldn't. If you pulled in forward, you'd have to crawl over it to get out the side door.

It is a 50" but I have some aftermarket wheels and tires that make it about 52" wide. I also have a spare tire rack on the rear that adds to the length a little. I thought if that was tight I could back in. I would like to be able to go places and if need be get to the bathroom, refridgerator and bed without unloading the RZR.

Look at the specs. It's 106 inches from the back to the closet that is on the right side. Until you get there, it is 56" wide. Between the closet and the refrigerator it's only something like 42". Unless you're a lot smaller than I , you have two inches on either side or crawl over.
No way can you access anything without unloading because of where they put the side door. This is the only unit I've ever seen that doesn't have the door in the front. Weird.
You could do like I did last year.

Opps, picture didn't come through. Try again. We did about 7000 miles last year over about three months, not a single problem. I have other views if you're interested.

alageezer, please post pics and the measurements, are you letting your rzr sit on the stock tailgate? notice the front elevated, is that enough to get the rear of the rzr at least to the hitch point? we are towing the v-nosed windjammer with the shortbed dodge diesel, looked at the racks that put the front wheels of the rzr over the cab, not only pricey but just didnt look safe. thank you in advance for any info you can share.

I have been checking measurements for the same rzr over the last few nights too. I have a 2011 19RR and want a rzr bad! It looks like a stock rzr will fit but the height has me worried, the back door to the 19rr is the same height as the rzr so it will be close on the roll bar. If you have bigger wheels it probably wont fit....

See if this helps a little. If you look closely, the back of the bike is setting on a rack we built here at home. It is raised in front so it can straddle a 3500w generator. The rack fits tightly in between the factory bedliner, and measures about 98 or so long. We traveled like this from Alabama to Idaho and back last year without any major problems.
As a matter of fact, I no longer have that trailoer, changed to a fifth wheel, so don't need the rack any more. I could be convinced to let it go rather than cut it up for scrap. I can get pictures of it setting on the ground by itself if you'd like.

Speaking of RZR's. Here's a picture of my wife's and mine. you can't get 2 of these in anything except another Cargo-trailer! (This is what we bought to carry our RZR's) We love our RZR's !! Have fun, I'm not sure if I could risk carrying one in the box of the truck like that.....I'd smash the tailgate while turning for sure ! So I pull the Rockwood Wind Jammer and she pulls the 18' cargo trailer w/ the RZR's.

When I built the rack, I fully intended on removing the tailgate. But after we built it and tried, saw no need to remove it. In my pictures, you can see I'm at better than a thirty degree angle, and nowhere close to hitting the gate.

Do you mean the entrance door or the cargo door? Are you able to pull into a walmart and get to the bed without unloading and how difficult is this?

Good Info! Thanks! How close is your roll bar to the top of the door opening as you pull in? Have any pics with it loaded?

When you say crawl are we talking under the rzr, over it or beside it? I am glad you are on the forum and can give us this info. Thanks, Mike

I think he is saying after its parked in the trailer he stands on the seat and goes out the back of the rzr onto the little storage box on the back.

If I removed the fold up sofa how much room could I gain? I'm thinking if I could gain enough room to walk by I could buy a couple folding recliners and carry them with me. Perhaps you can tell I really like this model and would like to make it work for me. Thanks.

If you want the trailer that bad, so ahead and get it. We've already figured out the rzr will fit. You can always strip it out, or learn to crawl over, or around.
Personally, I'd be looking at something that had the entrance door in the front, then you could get to most anything you, but's just my opinion.

I'm open to suggestions. I just liked the size, weight, price, the low profile and other features. I just figured it would be easy to tow and the low weight and height would contribute to better fuel economy. Also it seems that all of you are well satisfied with your's. You are abslolutely correct about the door placement. If only the door had been placed in the front it would suit me perfectly. I've even thought about adding a front door. If anyone has other suggestions by all means throw them out there.

though the curved front will help a little, you're still going to have wind resistance, which will affect fuel economy more than the trailer's weight.
you'll get the same 9-11mpg that we all get, no matter the weight or length of our trailers.
so, don't settle for the 19RR when you'll get the same mpg with the larger models.
