Just how strong are tailgates on these trucks, can i place ramps on them and drive a 600 lb atv up them into the box without damaging anything. I do it on my older f150 and J10 without any problems,anyone doing this to the new rams.
I walk my buell up into the truck(ramps on the gate). The buell is about 390lb wet and I am about 230lb. No issues at all. I wouldn't hesitate anything under 750-1000 lb, I'm not sure of the actual rating though.
Hey guys, new to the forum and had a question. So to my dismay, my bed is a little short to haul my Harley Street Bob. To do so, I need to have the back tire resting on the tailgate while I drive. I have seen a few different products to assist with this but my question is, can I just put a sheet of 3/4 ply to distribute the weight over the bed and gate and use this to transport the bike? Any info help or suggestions greatly appreciated.
