Lost Trailer Ramp

We forgot to pin our ramp and we lost it somewhere between Morrison and Sterling Il last night.....Retraced our tracks not there....so does anyone have an idea where you can get one reasonable as on the internet I've found them between 300 and 600...this was for our four place open trailer! ramp slides under trailer now without not much fun loading and unloading by hand! Can do it but a pain......Any help would be appreciated 815-535-3256
Problem is we a going north next thurs.!

Aluminum or mild steel?

Untill you find your ramp[that is if you find it], I'd go down to Home Depot and buy a couple 2x8's and a couple 90 degree ramp ends that can be bought at Harbour Freight or Lowes Hardware store. Throw the ramps in the middle of the trailer and bungie em' down . It ain't pretty but you'd appreicate it after loading. Sorry,I ain't seen your ramp but hope you come across soon. jmo.
Check with your local scrap yard and buy the raw materials to make a new ramp. Find anybody that farms and he can weld or fab. it together for you. Here's safe sledding to ya.

Forgot to tell ya to rubberize the center ramp for traction. Use and old car mat,mud flap and nail or screw it down good.You're sled will love it.

I lost mine a few of years back and learned to check the pin for yourself. I have a triton trailer and contacted the nearest dealer. They said 350 bucks and it would take 2 to 3 weeks to get it from triton. I couldn't wait and I am cheap so I made one out of wood. I used 2x4s 2x6s and some plywood I had already. I even had some 3 inch heavy metal L brackets I used. I made it like the factory one with the hole in the middle so its easy to use for one person, and some 1x2s for traction. It turned out so good I painted it with some alluminum color paint and still use it today. It is a little heavier than original but it only cost me 10 bucks for paint.

Check craigslist. Someone in SE Minn advertised they had found one. Maybe a good samariton will find yours, or you could advertise there and maybe it will turn up.

I found one yesterday but its not for a trailor its one for a truck .. poor bastard never tied it down and took off from a light and there it was for the taking .. im waiting for sombody to describe the one i have and the about area he lost it to get it back .. or its mine .. NO ITS NOT THE ONE YOU LOST !! I would give it back if i found it !! ((AT A SMALL FINDERS FEE THAT IS HA HA HA )) anyways Next time a pad lock in the hole works great no one can steal it or fall out .. if its like my trailor ((TRITON)) it has a hold down that clamps the ramp in place and you can put a lock in it so its secure !! GOOD LUCK ON FINDING YOUR RAMP SERIOUSLY--- THERE ARE STILL GOOD PEOPLE OUT THERE JUST NOT MANY !!
