Harbor Freight 6 ft ATV Ramp Mod for Carts and Wheelchairs

[@ludwigalvarezhouseofgroove7116]

Great idea thanks for sharing.

[@KindCreature1]

Another guy made a folding ramp out of wood, but I like your 'dandy' method too. Thank you.

[@DandyDoesIt]

I'm afraid I borrowed this idea from another youtuber. I just don't remember who it was.

[@geraldwatkins3543]

I have had the Rock and roller for years. I just bought an Astro van because lifting my Subs into my navigator got to be such a pain. I just thought of this idea earlier this week but I was going to use wood. Now that I've seen your video, screw the measuring and sawing I'm going to Harbor Freight right now. Thanks for the confirmation

[@DandyDoesIt]

Don't thank me. Thank the guy I stole this idea from!

[@funtyme2348]

man right on time. thanks, I was gonna try and make one for my shed. now it'll last longer cause it won't be in the weather. thanks​ guy. good informative video.

[@DandyDoesIt]

I use these ramps continuously. Still going strong. Not even a dent in these things and they don't take up much room. I stole the idea from another youtuber.

[@lonewolf-nr4sm]

Great job mate nothing wrong with what you have done always remember you will always get haters

[@DandyDoesIt]

All good. I'm used to it!

[@rondrury2264]

Great idea, great attitude. Thanks

[@DandyDoesIt]

I'll be using those same ramps today for an event. Unfortunately I no longer have a garage so they have been under a wooden deck for the past 3 years. A bit of surface rust but still get the job done fine.

[@TUKByV1]

This might be exactly what I need. Thanks.

[@Djstevedee-z1l]

what a great idea.. Nice Video

[@DandyDoesIt]

Thank you. It's worked well for me for several years now.

[@MarthaPadilla-h3n]

Wow just the video I needed to see

[@JonathanBaileyn2u]

Brilliant! Works for me 🙏

[@DandyDoesIt]

I'm glad!

[@dmfraser1444]

Where were these in my mobile DJ days in the 1970s. Now I am looking at wheelchair loading aids.

[@DandyDoesIt]

I just now loaded out of a wedding and I think I'm not far behind you on the wheelchair thing.

[@cause_im_carlos]

great idea!

[@carloseduardocarmonaortega6915]

Excellent Idea!

[@DandyDoesIt]

I actually stole the idea from another youtuber.

[@sachmo0196]

Tks from 2024. Want method to get (my room to deck) too, the main deck easily, 3 ft span, 10 inch drop. But can't have span blocked. Access to hvac. Has to be cheap/drawbridge or? Safety. Now this makes sense on all fronts...my walkway, semi-ADA, EMERG ramp. Home is not commercial.

[@DandyDoesIt]

I have used this many times to cross spans fully loaded to and from my van with zero issues.

[@steveflacy]

Thank you for this. I'm a bass guitar player. As with most bassist, my speaker cabinets are heavy. The lightest one is 45 lbs. I've been wondering how to get my Rock 'n Roller cart up into my Honda Element, especially given a weight lifting restriction after hernia surgery. This is it. I'm headed to Harbor Freight soon. Thank you.

[@DandyDoesIt]

Steve Flacy the ramps have some weight to them. Let me know how it works out

[@steveflacy]

I was just on their site. It looks like they weigh about 23 lbs apiece. And there may be other, lighter ones elsewhere. The idea is brilliant.

[@koolychat]

Exactly what I needed to see. Thinking about using the same system to load my van.

[@DandyDoesIt]

It's working well for me. I may mod it a bit further and bolt spacers between them so they are always the correct distance from each other.

[@koolychat]

+DANDY DJ i did end up getting it and its working out great for me.

[@DandyDoesIt]

Great to hear. Happy loading!

[@koolychat]

+DANDY DJ thanks

[@joyceralstonpayton531]

I'm looking for a way to load my husband's Jazzy in the van and this will work just perfect!!!

[@DandyDoesIt]

Joyce Ralston Payton great! Let me know how it goes.

[@marcelodeoliveira9931]

Excelente extra ideia 💡 👍🏽

[@DandyDoesIt]

I wish I could take credit. I stole this idea from another youtuber.

[@marcelodeoliveira9931]

DANDY DJ and PHOTO BOOTH ...it’s ok !! You helping pass the info 👍🏽😃...I’m going to use my son’s wheelchair

[@jimpurcell]

Brilliant!!!

[@DandyDoesIt]

I can't take the credit. Stole it from someone else but it has served me well over the last few years.

[@angel6154]

How heavy are the ramps.

[@DandyDoesIt]

I'm sure harbor freight can give you the exact answer, but I'd say about 20 lbs each. Maybe 25.

[@Bass.Player]

Good idea, how much weight can they handle? How is that Town and Country holding up?

[@DandyDoesIt]

I no longer have that van. Driving a 2013 dodge grand caravan now. Fully loaded, those carts hold a couple of hundred pounds. Never had an issue with the ramps. You can also walk on them no problem.

[@eyecallya71]

How about putting the link on there to the ones that you had on harbor Freight for $55 it took me right to Amazon the other link

[@DandyDoesIt]

This is a very old video. I still use these ramps and they have held up very very well. I would say just go to the Harbor Freight website and look up ATV ramps. These are the 6-ft ones.

[@sbgdavis]

How heavy are your carts? Is your van back of your van flat to the door or do you have a a lip/ threshold around the bottom of the door frame?

[@DandyDoesIt]

Great questions. My carts can get pretty heavy depending on how I load them. It's sometimes like a football workout getting them up that ramp but it's better than piecemeal. The back part of the floor is actually the bottom of the rear seats flipped over backwards so when weight is applied, because of the cushion, they will dip below the lip of the van. Not terribly though. You can always roll some towels or a moving blanket to bolster beneath. You also want to load the left side first. It's difficult to explain but you'll see why in practice. Hope that helps!

[@tomtran270]

Can you help me. With this equipment. ? My e is atom

[@mchevalier-seawell4438]

How much does each one weigh?

[@DandyDoesIt]

I have never weighed one but offhand I would guess about 15 lb possibly 20 lb

[@rsookdd8632]

How did you bolt it

[@DandyDoesIt]

Same holes. Just upside down.

[@rsookdd8632]

Is it hard to get off? What tool do you use to take off the screws?

[@DandyDoesIt]

Socket wrench. Just the nuts, bolts and washers that come with it.

[@danashaw8463]

What can be used for 26ft box truck? My lift gate is short I want to know what I can use to keep them from rolling off.

[@DandyDoesIt]

You'll want a proper loading ramp with side rails for something that big. Either that or a powered lift gate.

[@danashaw8463]

@@DandyDoesIt thank you

[@19totep]

Hi how can i order that ramp?

[@DandyDoesIt]

ATV Ramps: amzn.to/2Z5c2wO (invert them and put the blades on upside down if you wish to use them the way I do)

[@tomtran270]

Can you help me

[@LeftStageProduction]

Your kind of a neighbor to me as I am in Paducah, Ky. How about trying ratchet straps instead of cargo nets to hold the equipment. One around the side and one over the top and bottom should hold everything on the rock n roller cart nicely.

[@NeilSmithMusic]

Larry Lesniewski cargo nets are working great for me.

[@jerrytaliercio9087]

Harbor Freight you say?

[@DandyDoesIt]

Believe it or not these things are still serving me well. Stored under a deck and getting rusty but still holding up.

[@donnanappier2570]

Can l use this ramp on a Jeep grand cherokee 2013?

[@DandyDoesIt]

I would imagine you can use it most anywhere. I use it on stairs.

[@georgeberry1713]

Lifts to ger mobility scooters on and Off a car boot

[@DROY2004]

Fire the camera man before I get motion sick! On a scale of 1-10, #1 being best, I’ll give you a generous 8.5, yes it was that bad!

[@tracyarnold9974]

Please take WHEELCHAIRS out of the title. This is very dangerous for a wheelchair person, and misleads people that think there is a $55 alternative to a ramp van. This is why medicare wavier programs in TN only cover portable ramps, misleading videos by people that dont even had a wheelchair user and dont understand saftey issues.
