what kind of loading ramps do you use??

[pratner]

So...I need some ramps to load my big read into my truck, I have been looking but the ones that will work for 3 wheels are pretty expensive. I thought about making some and saw some kits for 2 ramps and i could go pretty basic with some boards but i wanted to know what you guys use. anyone out their make your own that work great. lets see em guys, i want to know what to build or where to buy. thanks

I bought a couple of those kits that bolt on the end of a 2 x 6 . Mine are 6' long. Had to buy two kits, so I have an extra one. Works great.

Harbor Freight has some ramps on sale for $49 until Oct 26. It is only a pair of single track, but they look pretty good. Guess you could either buy two sets or rig something for the front wheel. If the ramps aren't too long you might could set the front wheel in the truck and then push the other two up the ramp.

search for ramps

They have one that would easily work for an ATC for $60

I don't use loading ramps. I just put the front tire on the tailgate of the truck, then lift the rear with the grab bar and push...

usually me and a buddy load it up but i would like to find a way to do it easier and by myself, i thought about buying a couple of those kits, and i saw that one at harbor freight but when i went to the store they say its an online item only. thought about ordering them but it seems that it has a pretty good gap between each rung, dont know if that would make a difference or not.

i got a nice heavy duty tri-fold at pepboys for 100 or 120 bucks...one of the better investment's i have made. Can be used for much more than atv's.

Your all going to rip on me but I use an old bunk bed frame from the kids old bunk bed. The frame is really sturdy, light and like 8ft long. You can get them at the thift store for next to nothing and they work super good. We have used it to load 200x, 250 Kawi Mojav quad, 125 china knock offs quad into the back of the bronco and f150.

Take the bottom off and you have a ramp for all atv's. Looks very simialr to this one.

I just throw mine in by hand, them ramp things are more work than theyre worth. Quit bein wimps!!! :lol:

[Thorpe]

The bunk bed is a pretty good idea... I drive a cherokee, so I have a low riding trailer... (with ramp built into tailgate :naughty: )

[MonroeMike]

My ramp has a trailer connected to it.

tri fold aluminum from hardbor frieght

I load my 350x by just putting the front tire on the tailgate then lifting the back end up and rolling it into the truck. Fast and easy. Loading my Big Red on the other hand isnt as easy. I use boards with the bolt on ends. Problem is I only have two ends so I have to wedge the center board and hope it doesnt slip lol.

I have an extra end. PM me your address if you want it. Only cost would be shipping.

I load my 200m in the truck by getting my father, or one of my buddies to help me lift it in. I would like to get/make a set of ramps so I can get it on the truck myself.

[Jbird5363]

Tri fold aluminum ramps, light weight and durable. Some times I get brave and wheelie the front tire on the trailer but most of the time we just do it manualy. Got the ramps for my brother in laws raptor 660 I aint lifting that into the pick up.:)

[Jonpin]

I was wanting to get ramps too, theres just no way "well without blowing an "O" ring" to get the big red in the back of my truck by myself its hard enough with help the front tire isnt to bad but then the bike is like straight up and down from there. i just need to make my little trailer road worthy the tung folded in half on it when my friend he stepped on it taking his Z 400 off it"should probly throw it away actualy".

Crummy picture of my bifold, aluminum ramp. It's nice and light and fits snug between the rear tires of the wheeler when folded and loaded up in the bed. I put the spare truck tire on the front of the folded ramp and nest the front tire of the trike in it. Two ratchet straps on the front, one on the back and everything is secure.

Works great with a snowmachine too!

I spent the money and bought a moose bi-fold and it has worked awesome for me. Originally i got it for the brute force that I had. If you only had 3 wheelers to use with it you could get by with a cheaper ramp. In my experience more money = a better product on this kind of thing

[harryredtrike]

just buy the standard ones,two tracks and do a wheelly up them to the truck
