Tailgate ramp loader spring to suit horse float ramps and small low loaders.

How to select the correct size tailgate ramp spring

Often folks pick the most significant size to make sure the spring is heavy enough for the lift required.

Once installed, with the heavier spring, the horse float tailgate swings up so violently that it slams into the trailer with enough force to create damage.

Buying the correct ramp spring is simple if you follow a few steps.

• You will need a scale, perhaps a bathroom scale
• Lower the ramp onto the scale
• You now have the weight measurement of the ramp
• Select a size of spring that is 10kg more substantial than the scale indication.
• Once installed, the load on your ramp will be 10kg at the point where it touches the ground

Car trailers and low loaders use drop or overlay axles. This type of axle lowers the centre of gravity thereby lowering the trailer. LInk to parallel overlay axle.
