This TailGate Ramp is a replacement tailgate
for your pickup that is also a ramp. You’ll never be without a
safe form of loading. Just remove your OEM tailgate and install
the TailGate Ramp. There are two versions of the fold out
TailGate Ramp. The first is a 6-foot length model, which will
give a slightly greater angle on trucks with beds higher off the
ground than the longer model, the 7.5-foot model. Exact length
is determined by truck model. Both tailgates work with the same
principle just at different lengths. The TailGate Ramp is a four
section tailgate that can easily be unlatched in two separate
locations and folded out to provide safe loading of your ATV,
motorcycle, lawnmower or anything you need to roll, push or pull
into your truck. Benefits include safe loading and unloading of
ATVs and other items, and there is no extra space needed to
carry ramps.
The sections are constructed of quality steel framing with an
expanded steel grating. The surface of the TailGate Ramp is
coated with Rhino liner, which is a spray in truck-bed Liner.
The manufacturing process also adds garnet granules into the
spray on liner. This keeps the ramp surface from becoming
slippery, especially when snow and mud are present. The 6-foot
Tailgate Ramp weighs 115lbs and has a load rating of 1350lbs.
The 7.5 ft. ramp is about 10 extra pounds. The only time the
full weight has to be lifted is when you are installing - make
sure you have an extra person to help put it in place. The ramp
comes with a heavy-duty spring, which attaches to the truck to
assist in folding and shutting. The tailgate only requires an
average of 8lbs to be lifted when closing. The ramp folds within
itself taking up no more room than original tailgate and it also
functions like a regular tailgate when you don’t unfold it.
