I have the 24in. cimex and its time for a ramp. Any suggestions on a good source. I will need one around 7ft. long.

Thanks- Bob Ledlow

I've been using Link Manufacturing ramps for years. I have a jumbo one in our box truck. And we used one of their folding ramp in a couple of vans too.

I spoke with the folks at Link. We found the ramp in their line that is perfect for a Cimex machine, and got set up as a distributor.

Here's what I'd recommend...

I dunno about everyone else,
but my space in my van is very limited,
to say the least, with a rotary, drimaster, bonnets, pepsi tanks, hoses, wands, hand tools, etc etc, ect ...

so where are you putting this ramp
while in transit between jobs?

I've always wanted one, but figured it would be a pain to store it...

Rick which one do you recommend for the 19" (length wise)

I have one of the Link bi-folds installed on my van. It's definately a back saver. I'll post pic's and exact info on it later.

Personally I couldn't see having to throw a ramp in with my equipment and haul it around, I'd rather have it in there permanently.

I bought these several years ago for my potty; but were not suitable, so they sat in the shed , waiting......waiting.

For the Mex; they are ideal.



Easy to load or unload, especially in uniform with no man boobs,



Shows the ramps in place, with holes drilled through the floor and a couple of screws to stop them moving.



When travelling, the ramps sit next to the Mex;, usually with the Dyson or 18" Windsor behind the Mex;

It works for me.

Shorty.

Here's a chart to help you choose the correct length ramp for your vehicle...

Another option if you're short on space is a bi-fold ramp from Link. They have them in rear-mount or side-mount options. These ramps don't take up space in the truck. They're mounted to the floor of the van. When the ramp is folded up (traveling position) they essentially disappear. The bi-folds are the Cadillac of ramps. If you're interested in one of these, I can get them for you too. Actually I can get you any of the products in their line. Here's Link's web address...

Ok, so here are some pics of my bi-fold Link ramp installed in a Chevrolet Express 2500, I installed it myself, took me a couple hours.

The footprint is really small, and the fact it covers up some of the window in the rear is not even a problem. Yes..... I ALWAYS vacuum.

what is the length on your ramp ??


Thanks for the pics.

Oh and btw, where is the TM in those pics ?

Ken

Im pretty sure mine is the 72", or it could be the 81". Before I had ordered the ramp I spoke to the guy at Link, told him what I did, and he told me the correct size I needed.

TM? Who needs a stinkin TM?
