Boris3 Posted August 5, 2020 Report Share Posted August 5, 2020 I keep on tearing my is lip off the racecar when backing out of the enclosed trailer. Ride height too low for the lip. I could build some long wooden ramp extensions but at 4' to 5' length these start to get heavy. I figured I 'd put this WTB for the Race Ramps Trailer Ramps out here just in case, model RR-TR-4 or 5. Don't have to be pretty, only need them to be still functional. https://www.raceramps.com/c/trailer/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
straight6pwr Posted August 6, 2020 Report Share Posted August 6, 2020 Wow, made from foam. Wood is indeed heavier than foam, but those ramps are expensive! building this thoughtfully of 1x10s or plywood would probably cost $50 and they'd only weigh like 15lbs.

Boris3 Posted August 6, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2020 Thanks. Agreed on price especially compared to the lip. Easiest button is just leaving it off. I saw a used set of the 5’ ramps for $100 on Chicago CL that understandably sold quick and got my hopes up that more might be out there...but I expect that’s a unicorn. I had made a set of wood ramp extensions for my open trailer out of stacked 2x12s that are not long enough due to the ride height of the enclosed. Probably over built which explains the weight: base is 2x12x36” with a 22” top piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris3 Posted August 6, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2020 Hmm...I could just add a new base of 2x12x60” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
