If I was loading something in my truck up ramps and stopped would it unwind and roll back.Does it have a brake to prevent that ?Thanks

It would not unwind there is a brake release though to release the tension if you so wanted to let it roll back, I hope this helps.

No the steps will automatically go back up. But if you know your going to be off-roading you can pull the fuse out for the steps. Hope this helps

no it does not have to go back on it...mine fell apart so bad that it couldn't go back...just looks strange not being on there but truck has ran perfectly since mine was installed

sounds like the push pull thingy on the bottom needs to be reset. the part im talking about is the thing that contacts the stop ramp and stops the wheels from turning.

It doesn't have a brake. But the front wheel won't spin super fast. Not for bombing hills but a good start!

It has parking brakes to keep it from rolling away. You just step on the lever that locks the wheels. When you're ready to go, just release the brakes and away you go. Each rear wheel has it's own brake.

no it does not have a brake. It doesn't need a brake. the lifting mechanism only reacts if you pull the active chain.you.if you pull on the side that lowers the hoist the chain slowly lowers if you pull on the side that raises the hoist the chain slowly raises

I have not deployed the ladder, however I have looked at it. It does not appear to unroll, but expand like a accordion. I do not think it would cause a problem. Hope this helped.

The ramps come with a large, curved, lip (about 3" long and the full width of each ramp) that would rest on the tail gate. I use mine every day for getting my equipment out of my construction trailer and the ramps never move. Depending on the height of your truck and the amount of force/momentum of what you are loading, there shouldn't be much movement there either.

I got a 5000 watt gen without wheels and I use the ramps to slide it up to the back of my truck with no problems really.

Yes, it has a manual override lever on the bottom of the unit. By pulling the lever the trailer braking is increased the more you pull.

It does not but I don't know of these types having to need a brake. I believe only the electric or pneumatic types need a brake.

No, when up on the front wheels all four will roll. When set down only the front is on padded studs. The back wheels are still on rollers. Very steady when set down, but if the front is raised slightly it will roll.

It does not have a read out.. I pull a car trailer loaded with a 4000 lb racecar on it.. And sometimes I haul atvs as well.. Once I have my trailer loaded with what ever I'm pulling that day.. I usually adjust it to wherever I feel the trailer brakes grabbing pretty good but not locking up the wheels when I'm leaving the house.. It's a very simple process..

Just the wheel. I used 4 to make a dolly to hold a full size chevy truck cab while I worked on it. They were great for my project. I was in and out of cab and never had the dolly roll around on me with the brakes locked. I would say it really depends on your application and type of flooring you will use it on.

No "brake" if that is what you meant. You cannot just hold the handle and stop it either without danger of stripping the gears. No hose at base, just a hole for water to come out.

I use my left foot to feather the brakes (brake torque the engine) on and automatic transmissions. With a manual, just be ready to get off the gas and hit the brakes when you clear the incline. I have overrun them causing the ramp to tip and contact the undercarriage, and had to jack the vehicle to get the ramp out. Other than some gouges, no damage to the ramp.
