Are you sure your ramp is safe?
I mention it as the mounting plate for one of the under body ramp springs broke on mine.
Fortunately I have acess to a large factory and full workshop at weekends so stripped it down.
Prior to the failure there was no indication that all was not well except a slight flexing as horses were loaded.
Here's a pic of the state of the metal when stripped down. This is the rail that takes the brackets to mount ramp to box
Very Scary.

And the new metalwork.
