I found a plan once I will see if I can find it for you.
Cable bracing is the way of the future!

Generally they operate at either 20 or 30 degrees and it is as easy as wooders says. Buy a few lengths of shs, cut it all up with the grinder, weld it all back together in the shape of a ramp.

Anyone know of this formula?udm wrote:the basic formula is distance/wheelbase*1000
then there is a pro formula which i dont have, which corrects for different ramp degrees, etc.

RTI = (h/b) * (1000/Sin(A))
where:
h = height of the bottom of the tyre off the ground
b = wheelbase
A = angle of the ramp
It's essentially the same formula as UDM described but the distance along the ramp is expressed as h/Sin(A). This means the formula will work without even using an acutal ramp, or a ramp of any angle.
