Snowmobile trailer

[snooze]

I have a 3 place trailer with wooden ramp. I was looking for some ideas on what to put on the ramp to give the snowmobiles a little traction when loading.

Thanks

An old snowmobile track works great, Or bolt some one inch channel iron cross ways about a foot wide.

A rubber truck bed liner cut into 18" strips and screwed on. Or else there are strips that can be found if you google them.

I have seen guys use shingles.

I have some tracks that I am willing to give up... My brother has tracks on his trailer and they work great.

The old tracks are a great way to go.

Another option as a cheap alternative to some products on the market, I've used plastic lattice edging (it is shaped like a "U" channel) and cut it into 10" pieces or so. Use some strong screws to attach to the plywood and they last for years. 4 or 5 pieces on a ramp are adequate or use them on a tilt trailer as well. Fleet Farm has them for about $5 and you have enough for the whole trailer or ramp.

I bought rubber mats desibned for exactly that and screwed them on. I watched my friend stop midway up then climb again without spinning the track. We have studded tracks so that may help too. How about cutting up some old slides, new hyfax, or flat pieces of wood?

Use your old hyfax. Cut them into smaller sections and screw down.
