TA0091 2 ATV and 3 ATV Ramp Installation Instructions
The TA0091 ramp kit is designed to fit on the front cross member of
the 2 ATV and 3 ATV trailers. It can also be used as a replacement
kit on trailers already in service. The kit includes the ramps and
all attaching hardware for converting the ramps into a front shield
while being stored for transport.
Installing the ramps in the following manner will allow for the re-
moval of the ramp from the drivers side of the trailer first.
Locate the four ramp retainer attachment channels. Note that they
are all identical.
The two ramp retainer attachment channels on the right side of the
trailer will be installed on the front side of the trailer front frame tube
to support the ramp as shown in Detail E.
Place a 3/8” x 3 7/8” x 3” square U-bolt around the front frame tube
so the legs of the U-bolt are pointing forward. Align the holes in one
of the ramp retainer attachment channels with the U-bolt legs, then
slide into position. Note that this channel is mounted on the front
side of the frame tube. Secure in place with 3/8” hex flange lock
nuts. Position the U-bolt so it is 10 ½” from the outside of the side
frame tube as shown in Diagram A. Tighten in position. Repeat this
process on a second channel. Position this ramp retainer attach-
ment channel so that the center hole in the bracket is 27” from the
center hole in the ramp retainer attachment channel just installed.
Tighten enough only to hold in position until the ramp is installed.
Install the other two ramp retainer attachment channels on the left
side of the trailer to the rear of the front frame tube as shown in
Detail D. This will allow the ramps to overlap past each other in the
middle.
Place a 3/8” x 3 7/8” x 3” square U-bolt around the front frame tube
so the legs of the U-bolt are pointing backward. See Detail D. Align
the holes in one of the ramp retainer attachment channels with the
U-bolt legs, then slide into position. Note that this channel is on the
rear side of the frame tube as shown. Secure in place with 3/8” hex
flange lock nuts. Position the U-bolt so it is 10 ½” from the outside
of the side frame tube as described above for the opposite side of
the trailer. Tighten in position. Repeat this process on a second
channel. Position this ramp retainer attachment channel so that the
center hole in the bracket is 27” from the center hole in the ramp
retainer attachment channel just installed. Tighten enough only to
hold in position until the ramp is installed.
Once all four of the ramp retainer attachment channels are at-
tached to the frame, position the right ramp in the ramp retainer at-
tachment channels. The ramp can either be slid into the end of the
channels or else placed in the approximate position, then rotated
into place.
See Detail D. Align the holes provided in the edge of the ramp with
the holes in the center of the ramp retainer attachment channels
as follows: Place one of the ¼” pins with wire retainer through
the aligned holes in the ramp and the retainer attachment channel
positioned 10 ½” from the side of the frame and secure.
Align the hole in the second ramp retainer attachment channel with
the second hole in the ramp. Note that the U-bolt may have to be
loosened so the ramp retainer can be moved either direction to
align the holes. When aligned, insert a second ¼” pin with wire
retainer. Once the pin is inserted, retighten the U-bolt loosened to
adjust for proper hole spacing. The two pins will secure the ramps
in the transport position.
The passenger side ramp must always be installed first.
Repeat this process on the second ramp.
