Adapt tow dolly to Quad

With the gathered intellect here, does anybody have suggestion for design of quick adapter to throw my quad on my tow dolly once in a long while. For the most part I wouldn't be hauling the quad anywhere-just once in a long while I might. I'd like to keep the tilt feature of the tow dolly for ease of loading. I just don't want the hassle of keeping another trailer around to trip over.

You would need to extend the ramps, foward over the tongue, to get some tongue weight and lock the swivel plate, if equiped.

There is no suspension but the quad could probable handle that.

Last thing, you would probably need to register it as a trailer, as it's no longer a dolly, when carrying something like a quad.

I would try it, with my dolly, if I needed something like what your proposing.

Yes in Alberta we have to carry insurance and register tow dollies as trailers-so that won't change. I think I've found a trailer repair/welder guy in an even smaller town than ours nearby. I'm going to try getting out to see him tomorrow. thanks for the reply.
