Tow ramps for flatbed trucks and rollback wreckers

Race Ramps Flatbed HD tow ramps solve the biggest problem in vehicle recovery: loading lowered cars, Corvettes, exotics, and low-clearance vehicles onto a flatbed rollback without scraping. The signature 5.2-degree approach angle is half what a stock rollback bed provides, meaning cars that would otherwise damage their front splitters or oil pans on your standard flatbed load cleanly with these ramps in place.

Three models cover the full range: 74-inch Full-Length ($479) for maximum shallow approach on standard rollback beds, 42-inch Compact ($294) when storage space in the truck is tight, and XTenders ($214) to add even more length to the 7-inch tow ramps when you're recovering an extremely lowered vehicle.

Who buys these? Rollback tow operators who service exotic car owners, dealerships, and lowered daily drivers. Auto transporters running door-to-door pickup for sports cars. Repair shops with in-house recovery trucks. Race teams and paddock crews loading track cars onto haulers. Insurance recovery services that can't afford to damage a $150,000 Corvette during the tow.

Solid polyurethane foam construction rated 1,500-3,000 lb per ramp. Non-slip textured deck. Won't rust, splinter, or warp like wood or steel tow ramps. Lightweight foam means one operator can position them at the flatbed edge without a spotter. Made in Michigan, USA. Free U.S. shipping and 1-year manufacturer warranty.

Why buy Race Ramps tow ramps

Four reasons foam beats standard rollback ramps for lowered cars.

5.2°

Shallow approach angle

5.2-degree approach clears splitters, air dams, and lowered ride heights that scrape on standard flatbed beds.

HD

Flatbed HD rated

Heavy-duty construction rated for full flatbed loading. Handles sports cars up to full-size passenger vehicles.

FOAM

Solid polyurethane foam

100% solid molded foam. Won't rust, splinter, or warp. Lightweight and easy to position at the flatbed edge.

1YR

1-Year warranty

Every Race Ramp carries a 1-year manufacturer warranty against defects.

Tow operators: stop damaging cars on the load

Standard rollback beds have a 12-15 degree approach angle at the ground contact point. That's fine for a stock sedan; it destroys the splitter on a lowered Corvette, C8, or any car with a front lip. Adding 74-inch or 42-inch Race Ramps at the ground contact drops the effective angle to 5.2 degrees. Call (470) 208-2754 if you run a rollback fleet and want volume pricing.

Tow Ramp FAQs

Common questions on Race Ramps solid foam tow ramps.

What are tow ramps for?

Tow ramps sit at the ground-contact point of a rollback flatbed to reduce the approach angle. Without them, standard rollback beds meet the ground at 12-15 degrees, which scrapes on any lowered car. With Race Ramps in place, the effective approach drops to 5.2 degrees, letting sports cars, Corvettes, and lowered vehicles load without damage.

Full 74-inch or Compact 42-inch: which do I need?

74-inch ($479) gives the shallowest approach for the most extreme lowered cars. 42-inch ($294) is half the length and fits in tighter storage compartments on the tow truck. If space isn't a concern and you regularly recover lowered exotics, go with the 74-inch. If you have limited storage or mostly recover moderately lowered vehicles, the 42-inch is enough.

When do I need XTenders?

XTenders ($214) attach to the front of 7-inch tow ramps to extend the total approach length. Add them when you're recovering vehicles with track splitters, wide-body kits, or aftermarket lip extensions that clear standard 5.2-degree loads by only inches.

Foam vs steel tow ramps?

Steel tow ramps rust, dent, and are heavy enough to require two operators. Foam beats steel on shallowness (steel physically can't be built with this shallow an approach without becoming absurdly long), weight, and durability. Trade-off: foam costs more upfront but doesn't degrade with weather exposure the way steel does.

Are they safe for full-size passenger vehicles?

Yes. Rated 1,500-3,000 lb per ramp, which is well above the load per contact point during any standard flatbed recovery. Regularly used for lowered pickups, SUVs, and full-size passenger cars.

Do you offer fleet or volume pricing?

Yes. If you run a rollback fleet or need to equip multiple trucks, call (470) 208-2754 for volume pricing.

Made in USA?

Yes. Every Race Ramp is manufactured in Michigan, USA.

How do they store on the tow truck?

The 42-inch Compact is designed to fit inside a standard tow truck side compartment. The 74-inch is longer and typically travels on the flatbed itself or in a dedicated ramp storage compartment. Foam construction means they're light enough for one operator to load and unload.

What's the warranty?

Race Ramps come with a 1-year manufacturer warranty. Contact us at (470) 208-2754 for warranty claim support.
