Expert Answers about Ram Truck Ramps


  • How Long of a Ramp Is Needed for Loading Harley in Truck Bed
  • In general for ramps used to load a Harley you want to go with a ramp that is three times as long as the height of the truck bed. So if that number was 30 inches the Arch Loading Ramp part # 288-07432 would work great as it measures 90 inches and has a 1,500 lb weight capacity. This is our longest single ramp we offer though.

  • Hey Patti, yes the Yakima OnRamp Bike Rack part # Y88DJ is compatible with vehicles that are being flat towed so it would work well for you. The ramp built into this will make loading the bikes quite a bit easier as well.

  • Will Raised Gooseneck Ball Help 2018 Scotts Low Boy Trailer Gain Ramp Clearance
  • Adding a raised gooseneck ball would allow you to raise the neck back up on your trailer. I'm not sure how much you would need to fully deploy the ramp again so I would compare where you have the gooseneck now to before to see what kind of a raised ball would be required. I'm also not sure what your setup is, but the # 16085 you looked at would raise up the gooseneck ball if yours is currently sitting down in the truck bed. This is designed to fit industry standard rails and the top of...

  • Best Bike Rack for a Magnum Ui6 Electric Bike
  • Thanks for the picture! The best bike rack for your Magnum Ui6 Electric Bike is going to be the Yakima OnRamp item # Y96FR if your Volt has a 1-1/4" trailer hitch receive. The Yakima OnRamp has the capacity to carry two e-bikes weighing up to 66 lbs apiece. One of the best features of this bike rack is the cradle to attach to your bikes is adjustable and can be rotated, allowing it to attach to the cross tube of your bike. The frame mount design will not interfere with your fenders, and...

  • How Do You Back a Boat Trailer On The Boat Ramp When The Electric Lockout Is Unplugged?
  • You typically have a couple options Steve. The most commonly used is just waiting until the boat is on the ramp and then unplugging the wiring. This way you can let gravity take the boat down the ramp rather than pushing it with your truck. Another option which will depend on your surge brake is a manual lockout like the Key # DX94FR. This prevents the actuator from sliding and the brakes from activating in reverse. If you can tell me the model number off your actuator I can see if there...

  • Bike Rack That Will Fold On Front Of 2015 Ford F-250 With Curt Front Receiver Hitch
  • The Hollywood Racks Destination Bike Rack # HLY94FR is the only rack style bike carrier that I can find that has a longer hitch pin length when folded up. The Yakima OnRamp Bike Rack that you have and the Hollywood Racks RV Rider Bike Rack # HLY64FR will both require 7-1/2" from the hitch pin center hole of your Curt Front Receiver # C31018 to the front of the bumper for the rack to fold up. The Hollywood Racks Destination Bike Rack # HLY94FR will be 10" from the hitch pin center hole when...

  • How High Will Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Sit on 1999 Ford F-250
  • Looking at your measurement there it appears as though the top of the hitch is approximately 24" off the ground. The Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE # HLY84FR has a rise of 7" so expect to lift your e-bike about 31" to get it on the rack. If that is too much I recommend pulling the battery so it is easier to lift. Also, now that I see the full frame of your particular TotGuard you will likely need the # HRBA-PRO as well. We have options with a ramp like the Thule EasyFold XT # TH903202...

  • Recommended Stabilizer Supports For Equipment Trailer That Lifts Back Of Truck Off The Ground
  • Dutton-Lainson does not give a separate holding capacity for their Pipe Mount Jack # DL22685. The Fulton Drop-Leg Stabilizer Jack # FSJ1-SJ2 is one of the popular options for your type of situation. Each of these have a 3,000lb capacity so with one on each side that will likely be enough capacity for your Kubota M7060 Tractor since not all of the weight is going to be on just the stabilizers.

  • Troubleshooting Red Light On Curt Spectrum With Trailer Brakes Not Working On a 2014 Toyota Tacoma
  • The first place I would start is with the Curt Custom Wiring Adapter # C51362 that you have connected between the Curt Spectrum Trailer Brake Controller # C51170 and your 2014 Toyota Tacoma. The red light that you are getting when the brakes are pressed indicates that the red wire that connects to the brake switch is either connected to the ground side of the switch or there is a short to ground. I do believe that you have a ground wire issue. The Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter 3040-P...

  • Would Lack of Titan BrakeRite Adapter Cause Damage to Actuator
  • The adapter T4846000 or lack thereof would not have damaged the actuator. Normally the adapter is installed mostly out of the weather but it's basically waterproof so just use best judgment. Inside the adapter is basically a magnet that simulates the amperage draw of electric brakes so that your brake controller can sense a trailer connection.

  • Hitch and Bike Rack for E-Bikes on 2013 Hyundai Sonata
  • The hitch won't play a role in your tongue weight, but the bike rack will. The only hitches available for your 2013 Sonata are Class I with the 1-1/4" receiver like the Curt # C11025. The # C13315 you were looking at is designed for a Mazda CX-5. You could use this hitch with the Thule Epos # TH99XE but you're going to have to pull a battery off one of the bikes. This has the highest capacity for a 1-1/4" Class I rack at 75 lbs for 1 bike and 140 lbs for 2 bikes. The weight of the carrier...
