Highland 0700500 8" Aluminum Ramp Kit

Comment: this ramp kit was everything I was looking for....I started a small lawn mowing business and was pushing the mowers up 2 x 8's and then over the top edge of the board and into the truck; it was even more difficult getting the mowers down over the top edge and then down the boards....I ordered these and they are great (nothing like it at Home Depot, so don't bother); however the aluminum does not fit perfectly on a 2 x 8 so don't try...I even tried edging the edge of the 2 x 8 to make it fit better... I don't think they're supposed to fit perfectly....just bolt them on, put on the rubber adhesive and away you go...

Comment: Okay, I ordered this ramp kit based on the great comments.
You can use 2"X10" boards I did use 2"X8", but 2"X10" will work fine.
However you will have 1" over hang on both sides of the brackets if you use 10".
Now if you have a concern about the wood being slippery if they get wet, two suggestions read the instruction that recommend a kit that is an anti-skip plate type of unit. I used paint and added a little sand to it, it's an old painter's trick (yes I'm old)... or just use spray paint undercoating or truck bed lining paint. I will have many years of use from these ramps.

Comment: Product is very sturdy and easy to use. Packaging and descriptions very confusing - depending on what you read these fit anywhere from a 2x8 to a 2x12 but are really best for either the 2x8 or at most 2x10. Includes both the top and bottom but that also wasn't clear in the descriptions.

Comment: Bought this item to use for bringing out heavy items from my storage shed. The ramps are very easy to put together and you can determine the lenght that is suitable for your needs.

Comment: These are excellent. Kit has both top an bottom to attach to a 2x8 or 2x10. Length is dependent on height because the angle of the top will come out flat if you use the correct length. Lays right on the tailgate of my pickup. Self adhesive protective pads will protect the paint. Very strong. It's just what I needed.
