Question:

My trailer floor is 22 inch off the ground. Is there an issue with using these ramps for that height? btw, the most weight that will be loaded into this trailer using ramps is 2500 lbs.

I do have a solution for you, but the Aluminum Car Hauler Ramp Set # 288-07503 that you referenced has a max height of 16" for loading equipment.

I did speak with my contact at Gen-Y Hitch who said that their aluminum loading ramps don't have a height restriction as they leave that up to the customer's discretion. Their part # 325-GH-R72 has dimensions of 72" long x 14" wide and they also have a 6,000 lb weight capacity.

To ensure that you can safely load your trailer I recommend trying to mock up some ramps with some 2x4s or scrap wood that is 72" long. This will give you a good idea of the angle you will be looking at when loading up.
