Well I decided to use a set of old aluminum ramps I bought years ago to load my lawn tractor into my pickup when I bought it at Lowe's (never used them again) They have a 1,300 Lb capacity. I widened them by attaching 12, 3 ft deck boards between them.
As predicted, the Venture is bowing the board under it's rear wheel. I will have to place a bit of plywood across the boards to equalize the load across all the boards.
Wheel chocks from Harbor Freight work GREAT. Without straps the Venture is off it's side stand sitting straight.
Tomorrow I will be installing 10,000 Lbs capacity D rings.
