I hear ya. I text the "ol' man". Hopefully he kept his gear off the trailer. I'm on the road so checking my computer at the house for photos. Is a bit tough.
In a nutshell. We had one fixed wheel in middle and to casters on either end. Middle was a bit taller. And it took him a week to figure how to balance it. Drove them like forklift. Swivel by your end and pivot on lock wheel.
I'm going to look for those ramps. See if same process can be done. Beats carrying or dragging.

That's the main reason I sold my ramps with the trailer. A huge pain to set them up, and it seemed like no one wanted to pay what I thought it was worth. I used them as a step to get up on the trailer far more than I used them as ramps or load levelers. The load leveler brackets do come in handy to hang the rear oversize sign with though.

He emailed me back.
" of course the load levels wouldn't work if I bolted directly to them. I bolted wheels to track . and drilled 3/4" holes for eyebolts to pin load leveler in track. Like a Christmas tree stand to hold the tree in place. I don't have the pieces any more. But its easy to make. Remember work smarter not harder Jim"Attached Files:
