    I remember the first couple of times I loaded our pneumatic rollers, I would zigzag up the ramps so that I had wheels touching both ramps.

    Had an aahah moment a month or two later when I seen another driver drive straight on with only one rear tire on the ramps when driving straight on.

    Nice wood.

    Does your back flap roll up out of the way? Mine hangs down but I discovered I can flip it up and it stays just fine.

    When my company got ours they ordered one with rope and pulley and one with a crank bar. The ease of flipping the back up is making me wish I had picked the bar.

    We have a couple trailers with Contestoga tarps with the pulleys. They are awful in the winter. And one of them is so frayed, it gets jammed in the pulleys.

    You could not handle these. Heck probably could not find them where I had to go to pick them up. One went 6 miles and the other went 27.
