yes. just take them off before you lower the ramp. just lock them in real tight. maybe even use like ratchet straps.

That might get annoying if you have to take the trimmer off, take the blower off, put down the ramp, unload the mower, mow the lawn and then load the mower, put up the ramp, put up the trimmer, put up the blower, etc.
If you wanted to save space on the "floor" of the trailer IMO it would be better to mount the blower on the fender or tongue of the trailer, not the ramp gate.

Where are you mounting the racks?? Keep in mind that every time you load and unload a mower that ramp is going to flex and besides that the ramp is going to move even in the up position it's going to be loose.

Correct. :thumbsup:

well, you wouldnt even need to put racks on the trailer since these jobs are all pretty much local. just tie the trimmers and blower down on the deck of the trailer.

Here is my solution to the expensive wheel boots, I make my own, out of wood. You can custom size them, I use them on my mower and edger! I made a variation to hold crates, fuel cans ect. For example the boot on the mower was made by recycling the plywood from my old truck box cover. I just attached a cut down 2x4 to the side of it, drilled holes and put bolts thru it (I found if the bolts are extended about 1 1/2 inches it works the best). Placed the boot where I wanted it and drilled thru the floor of the trailer. I went underneath and screwed a 2 x 4 to the floor to cover the holes, went back inside and redrilled the holes to the proper depth and inserted the custom made boot. I made these for crates and fuel containers. Only takes minutes to make and inexpensive and you can make them to any size you like.
