Comprehensive Review: Conventional Ramp Door Spring for 8' Wide Enclosed Trailer Video

I would think the 185 lb spring would work best like the part #M394FR that you referenced. 185 lbs would feel really hard to pick up off the ground so I would assume this would be right at the correct capacity to make sure your ramp is easy to pick…

Hi Connie, The closest thing we offer is an air conditioner unit that comes with a heat strip as opposed to a full heating function. But the way it works is you'll just turn the dial on the distribution box to the heat setting and the fan will…

Hey Scott you will need to get the width of your ramp as well as the weight of the ramp to pick out what you'd need. For example the part #M394FR is for 8 foot wide ramps and has a weight capacity of 185 lb. I attached a link to all of the…

For a 6' wide trailer we have the 120lb capacity #362SA6 and 80lb capacity #M364FR ramp door springs from M-3. Both of these options can be shortened by sliding the mounting bracket down and cutting the tube to fit your trailer. The #362SA6 fits…
