We have a Valley 2 horse ramp load. The tail ramp is getting to heavy to lift alone, Does anyone have any suggestions of a way to install some sort of helper system. Thank you in advance.

A friend of mine in Ohio had the same problem.  She had additional springs added to her trailer where there were gaps on the ramp hinge and had the current springs replaced.  Apparently was very happy.  She went to Risa in Cincinnati, TrailersAmerica and had that done. Another friend had same place do her Trailet and that helped.

If the additional springs aren't enough, can you remove the ramp and just use the trailer as a step up?
