The swivel ramp from Link Manufacturing, introduced at the 2016 NTEA Work Truck Show in Indianapolis, pivots 180 degrees when you need to load or unload cargo, and swings back in when you’re ready to roll.

“We’ve had folding ramps for a long time, and customers asked for a swivel option,” says Michael Hof, vice president of sales and marketing.

Designed for cargo vans and box truck applications, the 30- to 47-inch-wide aluminum ramp offers up to 1,500 pounds of loading capacity. Available in 99-, 108- and 117-inch lengths, the ramp mounts in the rear stored position like a traditional folding ramp, but can also be stored behind the wheel well. A quick-release lever enables the bifold ramp to be unlatched without requiring the user to bend, lift or enter the vehicle.

“By swiveling, you get easy access to the back of your vehicle,” Hof says.

The primary latching module can be easily removed to provide open floor space for loading and transporting oversized cargo.

Predrilled bolt holes provide easy installation in Promaster, Nissan, Transit and Sprinter vans. Ramps can be installed by an upfitter or in the shop — instructions and hardware are included. 800/248-3057; www.linkramps.com.
