For the rear opening I recommend using enclosed trailer ramp spring # ERS120D81. It has a capacity of 120 pounds. And for the rear I recommend # 362SA6 which has a 120 pound capacity. Professional installation by someone with torsion spring installation (like a garage door company) is recommended because working with these types of springs can be dangerous.
You would not be able to use a spring such as # RS16933RH because it produces 2,000 pounds of torque. This would require a very have ramp or gate typically only found on heavy equipment trailers.
