Can't you get a "Timesert" for wood that you can screw into the wooden portion of the ramp, drill a hole in the aluminum ramp extension at the bottom and then use a plastic handled bolt to screw and keep it tight? I want to say Lowes or Home Depot carries both parts in the hardware section.

Thinking of putting velcro on the backside of the **** and them just stick them to the side of trailer to store them.

This is the way my PACE trailer does it too. Seems to work very well. Mine came with one centered...not much pull on them, they only stop a potential sway, and don't have much weight pulling them away from the floor.

Initially looked at just putting one on each ramp but it would be just off center, due to the support I put in. But also it would put it right inline with the track of the tires.
Loaded the car up today for the DE tomorrow worked great.
Thanks everyone for your input.
