Default Any recommendations for ramps?

I need a set of ramps to get an ATV in and out of the bed. Can any one recommend a good brand/manufacturer?

i got mine at tractor supply 4 years ago but I haven't seen them there lately. I recommend folding aluminum, about 11" wide. Try discountramps.com Good deals and good ramps.

I got some like these, and highly recomend them.(do not know the brand name of my ramps though.)

I got mine from northern tool years ago.(they do not sell these exact type any more)

They(mine) do look like these though, with the full "landing plate " that sits on the tailgate.(instead of the little tabs at the outer ends of ramp)

they have a 1500# capacty instead of 500#.

they also have a track in the ramp section so you could insert 1/4" plywood to allow for solid ramp use(insted of "open" with cleats.

They are also longer than 5' , so breakover angle is less.

note, once in a bind,I used them folded up,under the wheel of my 68 w-200,to get me unstuck....they were unharmed.

these are the closest I found to mine, so they have my vote.

I've got one of these - works great for sleds and ATV's. The best part is the way it secures so that the ramp cannot kick back
