Default 4 Wheeler

I'm starting to shop for a 4x4 4 wheeler for a paralyzed person. Dad has use of his hands, I was wondering if any 4 wheelers already come with hand controls?

I would do a search on automatic 4 wheelers. Other than the shifting, most 4 wheelers have everything else is a hand control.

I'm also disabled but not to the same point your dad is. I would think that the new crop of utv or side by sides would be more easily converted than a traditional 4 wheeler atv.

Here is a way to convert any ATV to a hand shifter. This particular link is for honda's.

I am paralized from the waist down .. I have had many ats's. I currently have a honda rubicon it is driven by fluid and can be shifted manually by hand or put into auto mode. I like it better than the belt driven atv's that are out .. I have had belt driven and have had problems but I am very hard on atv's .. I also have 2 side by sides and love them .. I just fabbed car hand controls to fit..

Check out the Club Car brand. They are the Cadillac. If money is not an issue then look at this one. Money was an issue with me-so I bought one of the Kawasaki Mule's. I then had a friend who owns a car lot do some custom work on it for me. I am now able to get back out. Do whatever you have to do to get your dad back out!!! Tom.

Not to say any names.....The Polaris Ranger might be able to be set up for this or the BRP 4x4.
