Can I use 5the 8in ramp with an 12in board?

If your question is, can you use the 8 inch rampart with a 12 inch board, I suppose you could. However the ends of the board would stick out past the rampart and look kind of weird. I don't understand why you would want to do that. If you are going to use a 12 inch wide plank, you'd be much better off using the 12 inch rampart. A 2 inch x 12 inch plank actually measures 1 and 1/2 x 11 and 1/4 inches and the 12 inch rampart is designed to fit it exactly. The 12 inch rampart actually measures about 11 and 1/4 inches wide...perhaps a tad less but it will fit a 12 inch wide plank nicely. It also will be stronger as it will be supporting the full width of the plank. If your question is, can you use the 8 inch rampart with a 12 inch board, I suppose you could.

I would not as you would have the metal ramp to small and you would have the danger of misjudging if you were backing out over the uncovered 12 inch board.I have the 12 inch and I bought 1 ( 2 by 10 ft) piece of treated lumber from Home Depot and had them cut it in half with these 12 inch ramps its perfect.While backing out of the shed there is plenty of room without the fear of backing off the ramp.the extra width makes all the difference.and I saved by picking out the worst 2 BY 10 AND HD cut the price in half. Its still as sturdy and works perfect.Remember its not just 4 inches your gaining combined its 8 inches total. Much safer...But heavier of course I would not as you would have the metal ramp to small and you would have the danger of misjudging if you were backing out over the uncovered 12 inch board.I have the 12 inch and I bought 1 ( 2 by 10 ft) piece of treated lumber from Home Depot and had them cut it in half with these 12 inch ramps its perfect.While backing out of the shed there is plenty of room without the fear of backing off the ramp.the extra width makes all the difference.and I saved by picking out the worst 2 BY 10 AND HD cut the price in half.

I used them with 2x10 boards with no issue. The only thing about going wider than the 8 inche boards is that the edges are not supported completely so the quality of the board is very important. I was leary about having narrower ramps but they worked out beautifully spread apart a bit further. Another thing to keep in mind is that 12 inch wide by 2 inch thick boards are very heavy when long enough for a ramp.

Yes you can dado. It should be in the specification. I think you can go 7/8" wide

I am using these slides with a board that is 11 " deep (of which " extends past the front end of the slides). So, 12" should be no problem. We replaced the weak slides that came on an otherwise usable computer desk from Staples. These slides are much stronger than those.

We bought the ramp to be used with a 5th wheel trailer. Our dog did great after a few minutes of practice!! You should have no issues.

Yes. You should check the weight specs for both to be sure, but the arms actually appear to be set at a width most suitable for a 2x12 combo. It is very strong.

If I was you I'd try to get a smaller board width so tricks come easier a wider board means the more power you need to use

Definitely 180mm trucks with 1/2 risers. Wheels can be anything upward of 70mm. I'd recommend 74mm 80a wheels for this board. Have fun man.

That is what I am using. works just fine. Although I do plan on getting the bigger board for more options later.

I have a 4" rise and was told for every inch add a foot, that is why I bought a 4 foot ramp. It works as it should. Be sure you measure correctly.

The model 1100500 uses 2x12 lumber, and the 0700500 uses 2x8 lumber. I opted for the wider ramps since they can carry more weight. Also, I bought a 2x12x16' with as few knots as possible (especially on the 2" edge) and cut it into two equal lengths. 8' ramps work very well for loading onto my pick-up truck.

Not 12 inches wide but 8 inches wide. Look at column mount panel boards. They're expensive.

Yes you can. Also, you can use 2 2X8s, or 2 2X6s and 1 2X4. You may have to adjust the uprights so there is not too much overhang or causes pinching on your buttinsky. Just pre measure the widths of your boards and experiment from there. You may have to drill some extra holes for greater stability.

No. The risers plus the board when assembled will be 8" tall. Each additional riser is 2" tall.

You should be just fine, I use them for my del sol which is extremely low. Also these ramp are amazing and do not slide at all.

I don't think so. They start out at 6 inches and I have mine stretched to 12 inches. So I think they will work on your board as well.

yes. the load rating on the tubing the lift is made of is 400 lbs+..the lift can handle the 5/8 x 12', just make sure you use the roller stop leg so that the lift doesn't get away from you while you load it

if yours is 12 feet, you should get one of those nickle boards. they are like penny, just bigger. penny is 22", i think nickle is 27" (the size of the board)
