Expert Answers about Chrysler Truck Ramps


  • Recommended Loading Ramps for Track Machine onto Trailer with Deck 4 Feet Off the Ground
  • I have a solution for you, but because of the 4 foot loading height, you're going to need a ramp with some considerable length to it so that you can safely load this track machine. I recommend using the Gen-Y Hitch Aluminum Loading Ramps- 144" long # GH54FR, which will provide you with enough ramp length to load and unload this machine. Gen-Y prides themselves on the durability of their parts, so you're getting a heavy duty ramp set that should withstand some of the most difficult conditions.

  • Battery Isolator For Adding a 2nd Battery To a Gooseneck Trailer
  • We do have the Redarc Smart Start Battery Isolator with Wiring Kit # 331-SBI12KIT which will allow you to add a 2nd deep cycle Battery # BRW34FR to your trailer. This will allow you to connect to your existing battery but isolate it from being drained by the hydraulic ramp. You do have the option of adding a Momentary Switch # 37213845 if you want to be able to pull power from your 2nd battery in the event the ramp battery dies. You would need to place the switch near the controls for the...

  • Recommended e-Bike Carrier for 5th Wheel Trailer 2 Hitch Receiver
  • I have a solution for you on this, and the reason you're having so much trouble finding these racks is that they're not very common because of the amount of motion that occurs on the back end of a 5th wheel trailer. Racks that are rated for use on the rear of a 5th wheel trailer will have a thicker shank that has been tested to handle the added stress that occurs back there. With that said, the Yakima OnRamp Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes - 2" Hitches - Frame Mount # Y36FR can be used...

  • Mounting Kit Required to Install Detail K2 Rampage II Snowplow K2RAMP8219 on 1999 Toyota Tacoma 4X4
  • To mount the Detail K2 Rampage II Snowplow # K2RAMP8219 on your 1999 Toyota Tacoma 4X4 you will need the appropriate installation kit. That bracket kit part is # K285120. Very often trucks that have a snow plow installed will benefit from some front-end suspension support to help offset the load from the plow's weight. Since the Rampage weighs in at 265-lbs you will certainly notice the stability benefits from a set of front jounce springs. A kit like Timbren's # TTOFTUN4 will bolt on...

  • What is Needed to Add Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator to Trailer With Disc Surge Brakes
  • So long as your 2003 Crownline currently has hydraulic disc brakes, you can absolutely add the HydraStar Vented Marine Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator for Disc Brakes # HS481-8067. It will do a great job of giving you the stopping power needed so your boat doesn't get pulled down the ramp, and since you have surge brakes and brake lines already, there's only a couple of other things you'll need, starting with a breakaway kit, the Hopkins Engager Push-To-Test Trailer Breakaway Kit with...

  • Recommended Snow Plow and Mounting Brackets for 1997 Ford F-150
  • The snow plow I suggest for your 1997 Ford F-150 is the Detail K2 Rampage II # K2RAMP8219. It uses a remote controlled electric winch to adjust the plow. It also has springs so the plow will lean forward when it comes into contact with an unseen object. This will protect the plow and your truck. To mount the plow you'll need # K281512 if your truck is a 4-wheel drive model or # K281511 if it's 2-wheel drive.

  • Troubleshooting Trailer Wiring That Is Going Bad On A G3 Eagle
  • It sounds like the wiring could be damaged on your G3 Eagle. I would recommend using A Hook Probe Circuit Tester Kit # PTW2993 which will test the trailer connector on the bumper of your truck. Activate the turn signals and check the appropriate pins for a signal. Have a helper step on the brake pedal and test for a signal on the pins. If they do not show a signal for the functions you could have a blown fuse. If you do get signals at the connector when the signals and brakes are activated,...

  • Recommended Solution To Tow A 2010 Honda Accord With A 2000 Ford F-150
  • The easiest solution is to use a tow dolly to transport your 2010 Honda Accord with your 2000 Ford F-150. I recommend checking out the: -Demco Kar Kaddy SS Tow Dolly with Disc Brakes # DM9713045. This tow dolly has a maximum weight capacity of 4,800-lbs, disc brakes, easily plugs into your existing 4-pole, and a foldable ramp for ease of storage. Attached is a review video for you to check out as well.

  • Hitch and Cargo Carrier for 5th Wheel Hitch to Carry Generator
  • In order to carry your generator on the back of your 5th wheel, you will need a hitch so you can attach a cargo carrier. Assuming the ramp on your Palomino will allow the hitch, you can easily add one, the Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs # 13703. You simply need to measure the frame to make sure it is between 22 and 77 inches wide outside-to-outside in order to install this hitch, which can then be bolted or welded on. The hitch has a 350 lb tongue weight capacity, which...

  • Recommended Camper Tie Downs for 2004 Dodge Ram 2500 Long Bed
  • I recommend using the TorkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs # TLD2101 and # TLD3109, which are the perfect solution for your 2004 Dodge Ram 2500 with the 8 foot long bed. TorkLift tie downs are high quality parts that have a durable powder coating to keep them in great shape if they're exposed to the elements and these will mount to the frame of the truck instead of the truck bed, so they'll help keep your camper from shifting when backing your boat down the ramp or coming out...

  • Why Can Only Some Bike Racks be Used on a Motorhome or Trailer
  • The reason some bike racks, like the Yakima HoldUp Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # Y02443, are rated for use on a pickup truck but not a motorhome or trailer has less to do with the size of the vehicle and has more to do with the distance from the rearmost axle to where the bike rack will be sitting. For motorhome and trailers there is an excessive amount of movement due to this distance but for pickups that isn't the case so some manufacturers will say a rack is fine with a passenger vehicle but...

  • Hitch Receiver And Cargo Carrier For Transporting A Generator On The Back Of A 2016 Nissan Nv2500
  • You will need a trailer hitch receiver and a hitch-mounted cargo carrier for your generator. The trailer hitch receiver that I recommend for your 2016 Nissan NV 2500 is Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver Class IV - 2" # 75715. When comparing this to other receivers, this one has the highest tongue weight rating which is 1,125lbs; this will be more than enough to accommodate a cargo carrier and generator. I attached an installation video which shows the simple bolt-in process for...

  • Rhino Roof Rack and Thule Canoe Carrier for Leer 180 Truck Shell
  • I have a great solution for a Rhino Roof rack on your new Leer 180 shell and an attachment for hauling a canoe. I recommend the Rhino-Rack Aero Bar Roof Rack for Camper Shells item # Y02-480B. They have a weight capacity of 220 lbs, track length of 63" per side, and the cross bar dimensions are 54" long x 3-1/2" wide x 1-1/2" tall with a leg height of 3". The two RTC-style tracks with dual C-channels provide adjustable mounting points for your roof-rack legs. The tracks mount to your Leer...

  • Is B&W Tow & Stow 5" or 7" Drop Ball Mount Needed for Truck with 22 Inch Receiver Height
  • The average trailer coupler height is in the neighborhood of 16-19 inches. What I'd recommend you do is put the various trailers you tow up on their jack so the frame is level to the ground, and measure their coupler height (see linked article). If none of them are lower than 15 inches, you can go with the 5 inch drop Tow & Stow, part # BWTS10037B. This will leave you about 1 inch taller than the level trailer coupler, but the rear of the truck will squat a little bit with the trailer hitched...
