Longer Ramp Set to Help with Loading Tractor in Yard Trailer
Updated 10/27/2025 | Published 03/03/2025 >
Question:
I have a yard trailer, no idea what brand it is, and it has a down gate on the back that acts like a ramp. The gate is short thus making the approach angle steep and I have difficulty getting my yard tractor on the back. Do you all make generic gates that are longer thus giving me a less aggressive approach angle? Thank you! Matthew

Hey Matthew, I wish we had what you are looking for but that's not something we offer. We do have longer ramp sets like the Erickson part # EM07435 though that could help though. These are 72 inches long.

Hey Matthew, did the longer Erickson ramps help make loading your yard tractor easier? Your update could make it easier for others dealing with a steep ramp angle on their trailers.
