Replacement Loading Ramps for Car Hauler Trailer

Question

Question:

I have a car hauler that had detachable ramps, and somebody walked off with the ramps. My trailer already has slots at the back edge for the ramps to grab onto, but I need to know the maximum loading height. The lowest part of my trailer's deck at the back is exactly 14 inches above the ground. Will these 288-07502 ramps work?

Given the information you provided (thanks for that, by the way), the # 288-07502 ramps you've asked about would work really well for you. They're designed for a 16 inch maximum loading height, so they'll work perfectly with the 14 inch rear deck height you mentioned. If you click the provided link, you can see a product demonstration video featuring these ramps. The ramps have a 3000 lb per/ 6000 lb per pair weight capacity.

I was able to verify that the weight capacity for the Aluminum Car Hauler Ramp Set #288-07503 that you referenced is indeed 6,000 pounds (not kilograms) for the pair and 3,000 pounds per panel. The recommended maximum height of 16 inches is simply…

Answer 7

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…

I did some checking and the hub/drum we offer that will work for you is the part #8-430-5UC3. This uses the same bearings as the 8-415 and will be an exact fit aside from the fact this is a non-ABS setup and the 8-415 came in an ABS setup and non-ABS…

I have a solution for you, but we do not carry Glo-Brite lights, so replacing it with the same brand will not be something I can offer you. Instead, to replace your Glo-Brite 9852-88, I recommend using the Optronics LED Trailer Tail Light #STL72RB.…
