using 1"x1" angle iron facing the "V" up- looks like this :

V-V-V-V-V-V-V-V-V-V

they fit into the frame- so no extra height is needed.

 

Wish i had a fancey tire changer on my trailer

 

Ahhh, I see. I predict bending unless you're planning on welding one angle iron to the next one. Just a guess.

 

won't be any bending because the ends are going to be welded to the "T" frame. I got the idea from looking at a heavy equipment trailer ramp.
Kinda hard to explain- you'll get a better picture once it's done. Imagine each end of the "V" welded to a "T" frame. The "T" frame has no flex.
It's actually going to be way overkill for an atv ramp- but I had the steel so whatever.

 

Very cool... I like.

 

Nice trailer! Wish I had the time to build one.

 

You may want to put the "v" s down or they will hold water and mud and speed up corrosion. What is the frame of the ramp made out of, I may be a little leery or it bending a little and then not fitting in its tray. Looks like a nice trailer.

 

the ramp works great- no chance of this ramp bending (unless you drive a fork truck up it) I ended up making the whole thing out of T frame.
slides nicely underneath the floor- I used a heavy duty latch to lock it in place and to prevent it from sliding out- the trailer is a bit heavy- but very solid- you can winch down on any rail or winch point as hard as you want and not worry about something bending or breaking like on the aluminum trailers. I welded a chain to the front with a clasp that locks to the atv hitch- I don't even strap it- I just chain the rear up against the rail, set the parking brake and off I go.
takes only 20 seconds to load or unload-

 

looking at picking up a whole new axle assembly for the trailer today- has electric brakes.
a little on the fence about losing the leaf spring suspension, but I figure it'll be more stable with a heavy load without springs...

 

you mean to tell me you don't have a local harbor freight store?

it's a right of passage to manhood to go to a harbor freight store!
