Question:

Good Afternoon, I would like to retrofit my equipment trailer ramps to include helper springs. I have watched your video. I still do not understand how and where exactly to install these springs. Could you provide a photograph of the springs installed on a trailer ramp? I have the same Question as Michael.By looking at the picture it looks like the left spring is on the right side? The green colored one is the right correct? Can you post a picture of two springs on one ramp? I have a Bobcat trailer how many springs do I use ? The ramps are 5 feet long. Thank you.

The left and right ramps springs # RS16933LH and # RS16933RH install on a shaft of 1-1/2-inches diameter. The width of the coil is 2-1/2-inches and the overall length of each spring is 11-inches.

You can refer to the linked videos and to the linked photo from a customer that shows how these springs need to be installed on the shaft. The springs may not always have a color indicated but the photo shows which goes on which side.
