Cyclone 4018 Specs, Garage measurements

DonChaffin said:

Im looking to upgrade from a 2007 HL CY-3975 to a CY-4018.

I haven’t had much luck finding the dimensions for the garage interior height and width measurements.

What is the height to the bottom of beds/seats in the garage when raised up?
I’m looking to upgrade due to needing more room to haul two ATV’s and a UTV/SXS. A two seater 2014 Polaris RZR XP 1000, with a lift and 4” portals, the RZR roof is 96” tall and 82” wide. it just barely fits in my CY-3975 garage with just inches to spare in the front and rear. The second ATV is a 2002 Yamaha Grizzly 660 and the third is a Yamaha Raptor 80 - My granddaughters!.

if there are any 4018 owners that help me out and provide measurements? I would be greatful.

Also has anyone special ordered a CY-4018?

thanks

I feel your pain for not having any CY4018 support. We could not locate one on the West Coast to peruse before we ordered our late model 2017. We just "winged it" by walking into a CY3418 to feel the ~17' length cargo space (not an enclosed garage). I can give you all the requested measurements.

Your 96" height with the lift/portals must be with tall tractor mudding tires installed also? Do you swap on some shorties to get in thru your present TH door opening? Is this 96" height inside your TH correct?

WOW....8' high...what a monster!!

Yes...we special ordered from factory.

If your truly intent on fitting your machine into a CY4018, here is the project I would measure up and execute if measurements dictate feasible. This trick has been done many times and works. I imagine you could check any like year of Cyclones on dealer lots for rear door measurement verification prior to this step.

Don't laugh, but "It is so simple, a Caveman could do it"...thanx to the Flintstone Theorem.

Fabricate yourself 4 plywood wheels to bolt on, either 3/4" or 1-1/8" flooring. Make their diameter as small as possible so your portals will not touch the floor when breaking over the dovetail. If I'm reading this correctly, you need at least 10" drop to clear the door? You have 34" tires on now.

Example...so IF your plywood wheels could be 12" diameter, your roof height will drop 11" and you could drive right in, making those wheels the smallest diameter possible to safely clear your breakover point....except your portals come into play for sizing of the wooden wheels on this project.

If you need 16" wheels to clear portals, then suck your suspension down a couple inches with cinch straps.

Now since your running on pizza cutters, you MAY even be able to keep the 3 Season Door (79" opening) setup on?...machine is much narrower and lower now thanx to the Flintstone Theorem. Your clearing the door height, but if push comes to shove, delete the 3 Season doors if you must.

You could also remove the rear HappiJack seatee setup completely, leaving only the upper bunk in rear....and you still have the complete HappiJack setup in the front. This will give you at least 10" more height in the back 8' of the garage, increasing it to 93+" from my 83" measurement given.

So instead of a custom higher rear door/etc (which ain't gonna happen when you ask the factory), you make the RZR lower and narrower.

This sounds like a fun project...be careful crawling up the ramp with those wheels...many of my Maverickforums peeps have tacked on old bicycle inner tubes for traction.

The downsides are you need 10 minutes extra before loading and after unloading for swapping wheels, storage inside the CY for 4-34" tires when loaded, and storing your Flintstones when setup camping.

Good luck in your endeavors...if you need anything else, just holler. We are full timing in ours and can shoot you any measurements needed.
