Expert Answers about Chevrolet Car Ramps

• What Ramps Are Good For Loading A Car Onto A Flat Bed Truck
• I do not think the Aluminum Car Hauler Ramp Set - 72" x 14-1/2" - 6,000 lbs - Qty 2 # 288-07503 would be the safest set of ramps for this particular job. They can handle the weight of the car no problem but looking at the picture you provided I do no think the angle of the ramps will be low enough to let the car get on the flat bed without bottoming out. I definetly recommend going with a longer set of ramps like the Gen-Y Hitch Aluminum Loading Ramp Set - 96" Long x 15" Wide - 10,000...

• Are The Handles On The Stallion Aluminum Car Hauler Ramp Set # 288-07502 Removable?
• The handles for the Aluminum Car Hauler Ramp Set # 288-07502 are welded on to the ramp. They will need to be cut off if they will not fit into your area with the handles attached. The ramps will still be able to be carried by the lips of the ramp as they only weigh 20lbs per ramp.

• The Race Ramps Sport Ramps like part # RR-40 are specifically designed for vehicles will low ground clearance so you should not have any issues with this.

• Can Race Ramps Rally Ramps Be Trimmed At Wheel Stop for Low Car Compatibility?
• I reached out to the manufacturer and the Race Ramps Rally Ramps - 30" Long - 5" Lift - Qty 2 # RR-30 cannot be modified. The outside coating really protects the integrity of the unit, so a modification could cause a significant difference in capacity. You would either want to use a jack to assist or want to use a different ramp like the Race Ramps Shop Ramps - Qty 2 # RR-SPR.

• Aluminum 6,000LB Car Hauler Ramps For a 20 Year Old Big Tex Trailer
• To determine if you will be able to use the Aluminum Car Hauler Ramp Set # 288-07502 will fit your Big Tex trailer you will need to take some measurements on your trailer. The tabs which fit into the tracks are 1" deep and 1/4" thick. These 60" ramps have a 16" maximum height to the top of the channel. If the end of your trailer is taller than 16" we have the 72" Gen-Y Ramps # 325-GH-R72

• Will the Stallion Ramps 288-07503 Work With a 3600 Pound Vehicle That Has 10 Inch Rear Tires
• With the Stallion Aluminum Car Hauler Ramp Set - 72" x 14-1/2" - 6,000 lbs - Qty 2 # 288-07503 having a combined weight capacity of 6,000 pounds, they look to be ideal for your application. These are also 11-3/4" wide, so your 10" wide tire will fit perfectly. With the ramps we currently have on offer, I really don't think there is a better option that these.

• Ramp Springs for Flatbed Car Hauler Trailer with 220-lb Ramp
• For your 82-inch wide ramp whose weight you estimate at about 220-lbs, the 2K ramp springs # RS16933LH and # RS16933RH should work well as long as you have a 1-1/2-inch round shaft to match the springs' inside diameter. If you check out the linked video on these items you'll see that they worked well on smaller ramps that were a bit lighter than your ramp will be. Since the springs provided a bit more tension than necessary in that application they should be perfect for yours.

• Can Trailer Valet Wheel Dollies Be Used To Assist In Loading a Low Profile Vehicle In a Car Hauler?
• Yes, the Trailer Valet Trailer Wheel Dolly # TV56FR can be used to pull your low profile vehicle up a ram into a car hauler trailer. Do note the smaller diameter wheels will require as smooth as a surface as possible for loading and each dolly is rated up to 2,000lbs. A better option would be to use some Trailer Loading Assist Ramps # RR-TR-5 as these will reduce the angle of the ramp and make it easier to load and unload your low profile vehicles.

• Ramp Compatibility for Kubota L2501 with Rear Attachments
• Your Kubota L2501 weighs between 2425 to 2623 pounds so the Aluminum Car Hauler Ramp Set # 288-07501 rated for 6,000 lbs will work well for the weight. You will simply need to determine if your loading height of your trailer will be over 12 inches as that is the maximum height for the length of these ramps. If your loading height is 16 inches or under you can use # 288-07503. Your 2001 Sierra can tow that car hauler trailer without issue or be hauled on that trailer using these ramps...

• Will The Race Ramp Xtenders RR-EX-14 Also Work With The FloTool RhinoRamps
• The Xtenders for Race Ramps 67" XT Car Service Ramps - 45" Long - Qty 2 # RR-EX-14 are designed to be used with the Race Ramps # RR-XT and # RR-XT-2 that have 10.8 degree ramps. As the FloTool RhinoRamps, like the # FT11909MI, will have a different angle of right around 18 degrees, the Race Ramps will not be compatible. Unfortunately, FloTool currently does not have any extenders available for their ramps.

• Why is there a Height Limit on Aluminum Car Hauler Ramp Set 288-07502
• The height restriction on ramp set # 288-07502 has to do with the distribution of the weight, ability for tires to grip, and clearance between the tops of the ramps and the vehicle rolling up them. The shorter the ramp the more severe the angle will be as the loading height increases. You could go with longer (and tougher) ramps using the Gen-Y options such as # 325-GH-R72, # 325-GH-R84, or # 325-GH-R96. These ramps will last pretty much forever since Gen-Y is known for making products...

• Will the Gorilla-Lift Utility Trailer Tailgate Assist Wpork With an Enclosed Trailer
• Unfortunately the Gorilla-Lift Utility Trailer Tailgate Lift Assist w/ Cable # GL1 you're looking at is only going to work with on utility trailer with raised bed rails, so it's not going to work with your CarMate enclosed trailer. Instead, you'd need to use a conventional spring like the Conventional Ramp Door Spring for 8' Wide Enclosed Trailer # CB250D96SHD which will work with enclosed trailers. You're just going to need to measure the distance between the mounting brackets and let...

• Is There a Fold Up Platform Rack Option with a Ramp for Loading Bikes?
• That is a great idea and there is a market for it but we haven't won the manufacturers over with that option yet and we can't add anything to their products without a warranty issue. We haven't seen a ramp for the Saris SuperClamp EX 2 Bike Platform Rack - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Wheel Mount # SA4025F but there is another option with the fold up platform rack you may want to consider. The Access Ramp for Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack # ANVBRB is compatible with # NV12G, # BA12B, # NV12B, and...

• Recommended Bike Rack for a 1-1/4 Inch Hitch and a 2 Inch Hitch
• I have a couple of possible solutions for you but you won't be able to carry the Yakima OnRamp Bike Rack item # Y36FR with your 1-1/4" hitch if you use an extender/adapter. Those adapters reduce your hitch's capacity by 50%. The first option is to purchase the 1-1/4" version of the Yakima OnRamp Bike Rack item # Y96FR so it fits your car and using the Brophy Hitch Reducer item # HT02 will allow it to fit your husbands 2" receiver. The benefit of using the reducer over the adapter is that...

• Will The Gen-Y Hitch Aluminum Loading Ramp Allow For Use on a Dump Trailer?
• Our loading ramps like the Gen-Y Hitch Aluminum Loading Ramp Set # 325-GH-R96 are designed to hook into the channels generally found on car hauler type trailers. You could weld on this type of channel on the end of your trailer bed or cut some notches in your bed depending on the bed construction of your trailer. These ramps are 8' long and reasonably light at only 53lbs per ramp. With that light weight they are rated for weights up to 5,000lbs per ramp or up to 10,000lbs for your equipment.

• Could the Erickson Ramp EM07464-2 Be Used on a Van for Loading Pressure Washer
• As long as there is a decent ledge at the rear of your 2003 Chevy Express Van when the rear door is open the ramps part # EM07464-2 that you referenced would not slide or move while pushing up your pressure washer that is on wheels. I attached a picture that shows the brackets of the ramps that will rest on the rear cargo area of your van for you to check out. You will want to open the rear door of your van to see if the ramps would fit. Normally these ramps are used on truck tailgate...

• Recommended Ramps To Load Jeep And UTV Into Enclosed Trailer
• All of the ramps we have that can hold your Jeep, such as the Aluminum Car Hauler Ramp Set - 72" x 14-1/2" - 6,000 lbs # 288-07503, have a lip on the front of the ramp to attach to a channel on the trailer. Since your trailer doesn't have this channel, I don't recommend using these ramps because they won't have a good place to be mounted and may slide around. I think your best option here is to go with something similar to the ramps in your trailer which have a flat style front piece. The...
