ROFL

make it based on the angle you want to get

angle = 20, 30 or whatever degrees
width of ramp = whatever you like (at least 15" i'd say)
width of base = at least 3 times the width of ramp
height = use trigonometry to figure out how high the top has to be to get the angle you want

EG - mine is 30 degrees, length is 2500, roughly same W.B as my rig, height is 1300, enough to get 30 degrees... and width is 400, i would like it to be a bit wider though, you have to come on on a pretty savage angle to not drive off if you're going high. :twisted:

30 degree seems to be the most popular with modified vehicles.
23 degree is another one but has to be really long or you might drive off it before lifting a wheel :roll:
