Solution for Transporting Tractors, Blowers, and Other Cargo on a Lifted Ford F-150  

Updated 06/01/2022 | Published 05/12/2022

Question:

My truck is higher than 36 inches, so I cannot use the CargoSmart that the S-Curve Loading Ramp Set - Center Fold - Aluminum - 90" x 12" # 3483018. What do you recommend for me to get? I am looking for a ramp to load up tractors/blowers etc to my f150 short bed lifted truck.

While we do have a viable option for you, you are correct that your truck is too high to use the CargoSmart that the S-Curve Loading Ramp Set # 3483018. This is because this ramp has a maximum load height of 36" high.

With that being said, all of our ramps do not work with trucks that are higher than 36 inches. The only option is to use the Detail K2 Mighty Multi Utility Trailer - 6' Long # K2MMT4X6. This trailer measures 72" long x 48" wide x 7-1/2" tall and has a maximum payload capacity of 1,295 lbs. Also, with this particular trailer, the tailgate can be used as a ramp for your tractor, blowers, and other cargo. It is important to note that you should never exceed the weight 1,295 pound weight capacity because doing so is extremely dangerous.

The trailer requires a 1-7/8" hitch ball like the # C40002. It is also important to measure the ground to the top inner lip of your hitch receiver to see what rise/drop ball mount you need to make the 16" coupler level on the trailer. I went ahead and attached a product listing of all of our rise/drop ball mounts that are compatible with 2" hitches and have a 1-7/8" ball.

If you need a wiring harness and a 2" hitch recommendation, feel free to respond with the year of your F-150, and I will be happy to make those recommendations for you.
