Will this REACH the bottom of a full size 4wd Pickup Trick? I have a Dodge RAM 1500 and don't know if this thing's tall enough?

Probably not, and still have enough height to lift the vehicle off the ground. I have a Dodge Charger, and the first few inches of lift are used up in suspension travel before the tire even starts to leave the ground. Then when I have the tire a couple of inches off the ground, most of the height of the jack is used up. You may have to use a 2x4 under the jack for added lift.

The HY-1500L extends thirteen inches. So a tall truck with large diameter tires will need a flat stable and strong platform to place the 15000L on for the 13" reach of this device to be effective.

I would not advice you to use this jack. It literally fell apart the second time my husband used it, thankfully he wasn't under the car at the time.

Hello there,It will be okay on the RAM just make sure you find a lower spot near where you want to lift before placing the jack. Also, and just in case, always carry a peace of wood (6x4) to increase reach in case the ground is not level. But I can say I am very pleased with this tool, even though I only used about 4 times.CheersLuiz

You definitely need to have a plank of wood little b bigger than the base of the Jack with a thickness that would depend on the highest level the jack would extend and the jacking points of your truck. I had to provide at least 2" of wood block to lift the tire of my 4x4 Nissan Xterra using the jack. My truck weighs 5000 lbs. and use 265/70 x 16 tires.

I bought these ramp brackets to work with either a residential van or a 4 x 4 dodge pickup. I used 8' 2xs and that seemed to work well for my purposes. I'm guessing that you could take a c clamp and temporarily secure a short 2x to the bracket, lay it on the tailgate / receiving surface and then use a tape measure to project out where it would hit the ground. The tape reading would then give you a pretty good idea of the length you should be shooting for in your particular case.

I would assume so, It does not sit very high off the bumper. I would suggest a large hoop or mini stinger style bar. I'm sure rugged ridge has some details in their winch plate mount instructions regarding required clearance.

We only have a toyota avalon which is not tall. However I do not believe it would reach over the hood of your truck.

It's not the longest of its kind; depending on how high above the ground the floor of your truck is, it may be a steep slope to load your four wheeler. I would advise to gauge the angle with a stick of same length before ordering, or to order a longer item if your four wheeler is heavy. Besides that this item is well buit and sturdy, also comes with a retainer system to avoid the ramp to slip from the truck and fall down under strain. A very good item overall, but check the length with your own truck.

No it sits to low. It does not work well on my four wheeler. cant lift much or it will tip forward

Check out dodge web sites for max tire sizes with and without lift. I put mine on a jeep fsj with about 4inches. You also need to check for the right wheel back spacing.

I was going to use them for a similar purpose but I found that they had far too much slop. At the top end 30" height I think I measured a 5" diameter circle that the pad your truck would sit on moved. But I tried and my Jeep fell off the jacks! Thankfully I left the tires on for this test and no one was hurt. Hope this helps.

When stowed, the brackets and ladder add only about 1" to the height of the tail gate, but yes. If you have a full size truck, it will not be an issue.

I used it on a full size GMC 1/2 ton pickup. I do not recommend it. It will not hold up when exposed to the sun.I will not buy another.

I think it will - I have a 5' bed and there seems to be ate least 3 feet hanging over the cab --- really high quality stuff in my opinion - I drove mine under a parking garage -- don't say it! and they were very responsive in getting me a replacement unit etc I would recommend - my is for intermittent use but mounts well and seems very solid. With the addition of a tarp would make a great pickup camper also!

Mine came with a "foot" that, depending on hitch height, will reach the ground. That being said, if loading your truck, pulling the pin to lift the foot mave prove difficult unless you use a bottle jack or jackall to assist. Cheers!

I guess about a little over 8', depending on the height of your truck hitch. I have a 4x4 Dodge diesel and it sits a bit higher than a 2 WD. I am 6'4" and I can barely reach the pulley at the top of the hitch. It takes a a nice buck deer high enough to skin without the antlers hitting the ground with my truck.

While this ramp has a lip that is placed over a stair edge or threshold, and could be placed at the edge of your pickup truck bed, I suggest you call the manufacturer directly 800-554-7267 and ask this question. This product by the manufacturer appears more appropriate for your application http://www.pviramps.com/products/product-details/id/4

Don't need it for 4" lift or less. Don't know about taller lifts. My 06 TJ has a 4" lift and it just fit with the heim all the way in. Works great for me!

It is 22 inches and has been great for my truck. You can measure what length you need off the floor and see if it would be a good height. Mine works perfect. It even holds my cell phone or tablet no problem.

Reaching the bottom should be okay but any higher l doubt. Plus mine gave up and blew a gear lifting a Honda Odyssey.
