Deuce Loading Ramps?

[tklm539]

Does anyone have any ideas or photos of loading ramps for a deuce to allow ATV to be loaded.

I think the commerical alum. ramps 91" will be to short.

Home made, lightweight for one man operation,18ft long 2pc (foldable), good for anything from small ATVs to a loaded M886. See pics...

Man, those are some fantastic looking ramps, gringeltaube. Excellent fab work!!

 

[gimpyrobb]

What are those, cable trays?

x2 awesome

Thank you!
The "new" metallic look is because of the hot zinc plating, but that really doesn't match our preferred color! Wish I had a paint that really sticks on zinc coated steel...

WOW those are great. If only I could weld!!

Thanks

If I were to go with a 10' ramp, how bad would the angle be?

Looks similar but nope.
U-shaped traverses welded to one piece triangular side rails, for structural strenght.
Pins are 1/2" diam., everything else is 2mm steel.

gringletaube and "home made" do not belong in the same sentance

A little drawing...

 

[tklm539]

Now I understand why I should have paid attention in math class!!!! Thanks

What about the angle if they are 12' long ramps?

i need to make some custom ramps as well. i have a 2k winch in the back so i could use standard ramps and just do that for quads but eh i want to ride them up much easier hahaha. those ramps that are 18' are so nice. foldable even and holds a truck. mmmmmm

I have a set of 8' ramps that I ride the quad into the bed of the Deuce. They were made to fit in the back of my pick-up.

Those are great ramps. I have seen a guy use an aluminum extension ladder (20 foot = 2 10 footers) with plywood on them, to load atv's. P.S. it wasn't me.

These are military trucks! What happened to doing it old school and backing up against a berm?

That's what I do, with all my trucks lol, normally that gets ya pretty close then 2 short sections of 2x6 will help take care of any gaps if your at weird angles lol

Or back into a ditch (that you can get out of)
