Default loading ramps

Anyone have any suggestions on what kind/where to get some good loading ramps to load my 4 wheeler into the back of the truck, without the ramps messing up my paddle tires, I am looking for the bi/tri fold ones. Any info will be appreciated!

I have a bi-fold aluminum ramp and haven't had any issues with tearing paddles. But I also don't ride it up the ramp unless I can't get a hand from anyone. And then I do it very carefully. My ramp looks like a ladder when it's folded. There are about 6-8" gaps between each "rung." And has been used as a ladder in a pinch.

I just saw a nice set on Harbor Freight.com for 79.95

1000 lb capacity folding billet ramps

2 piece, 30" width overall,,,,so you would have to split em

but they at least looked like a good deal.

The tri-fold has 500lbs more capacity and is the same price: http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=90018

I ordered one last weekend but it hasn't showed up yet. I'm still waiting to see it in person to check the quality. Most mororcycle shops want upwards of $150 for a tri-fold.

Just to followup on my previous post about the harbor freight tri-fold ramp. I recieved it earlier this week. VERY nice ramp for the money. Very sturdy and well built. The only problem I ran into is when folded it is to tall to slide up under my quad (hits the rear skid plate). So I am going to sell it to my brother who has a Foreman and purchase the bi-fold.
