We have a dodge ram 4X4 which is fairly tall. Does anyone use this with a similarly tall vehicle?

I have a Jeep Patriot with of course not as high as your vehicle. Homebrite shows approx 6 in. above hood. You would probably need to mount on a brick(by brick I mean on used in building walls) or such. As long as you can see it and bumper touches pole you should be ok.

If the 4 foot model is too short, try the Park N Place model number 77104 that is available on Amazon. It stands 62 inches high and made for SUVs.

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

Yes, we have a 4 Runner and use the Stop signs. It works great, because as soon as the front end touches it and the red light flashes, I know it is time to stop. It is high enough and it you go forward too far, you can see the front of the sign bending forward, which tells you to back up; just a tad!

The height is 4 feet from the floor to the middle of the stop sign. My guess is that it would be fine for your Ram 4X4. I use it for a Mercedes E Class. The unit has been working great for over 2 years with the same battery.

Definitely ! I have a large F350 truck where the tailgate is very high and my 3 large dogs have no problem using it. Best if luck!

I put it in the ATV a couple weeks ago and had to work to get it to ft, I think it was taller.. ATV is not near me now. I would trust dimensions from the ad and see if you can make it work in your atv.

The foot may reach the ground. It does with my truck, but I have a 2WD Ford Ranger. I would guess that it won't reach the ground on a full size, 4x4, or lifted truck, but some short lengths of 2x6s stacked flat to make up the distance would work fine.

The answer to this question is of interest to me as I have a Nissan Titan 4x4 pickup and am considering the device for my use mostly.

I have a 2005 Ram 2500 4WD and it works great. I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work on a dually as long as there is at least an inch or two between the tires. Only problem is that I like step in highest position, probabaly like most people who go to the trouble of using one, and it won't fit in it's case in that postion.

So I think the weight needs to be spread out. If there are 4 wheels then it can probably handle the weight. The thing I wonder about is width and control. The ramp is edged and the bed of the ramp is only 13" wide. Also, I think it would be pretty steep - could you keep control? I would take a tape measure and measure out the length, and then hold it up to the back of your truck and look at the steepness of the slope.

No!!! We have a remote 4x4 truck that we use it for. It's not that wide or heavy duty.

Can't answer for sure......it does have enough umph and enough lift to raise my 28' trailor off the hitch of my late model Dodge 3500 4WD pickup. Which is fairly high itself.

I would not suggest it...but w/ it set to lowest height it may work. Personally...after the length of time it took to put together & the weight of it - fitting into a van would be painful. Perhaps in the back of a pickup...tied down well - if that's an option

No too long and too tall. I have one on a 79 GMC K30 pickup and it's a little too tall

From my experience with my 4WD, I would say no. Your upper control arms will collide with your frame, plus the studs on the assembly are too short (unless you have some sort of extender to go on them). I sacrificed a half of an inch when I switched to this system but actually much happier with the stability and control over my old Daystar (poly) spacers.

Should do I use it on my Tacoma 4x4 DC with a LEER TOP WHICH IS MUCH LONGER THAN ANY CAR

Don't understand your question about the different lengths? Unless you mean the 14" to 17" it talks about. If you do this is the different heights off the bed of the truck that you can raise or lower it to. I don't recommend using a short wheelbase truck to pull a 36 foot fifth wheel!!

Actually you ought to be careful. I had a dodge ram and it was made for that and when I switched trucks to a Raider it fit perfect but when I switched to a Titan recently it does not and I have to rig something. And so make sure to get a solid answer. Good luck

I don't think it would be a problem. The truck is a good size and quite sturdy. I am 6'2", 205 lbs and I sat on it as a joke with my grandson, it held up !

At this scale it does not fair too well on tall grass or thick cut brush. It either gets stuck due to clearance or doesn't have much control because it's hopping. It does great on dirt, pavement or anywhere clearance is not an issue. It's a lot of power for such a small truck and totally worth the price.
