ABSTRACT:
A ramp system attached to a load carrying vehicle having a flat bed or floor, a rear door pivotally attached along a horizontal axis to the flat bed, and at least one ramp assembly pivotally secured along a horizontal axis to a hinge bar fixed to the rear door. The combination of the rear door and the one or more ramp assemblies constitute a sloped surface for use during the loading and unloading of goods from and to the load carrying vehicle. Each ramp assembly can be readily extended for loading and unloading purposes and locked to the interior surface of the rear door of the load carrying vehicle in a generally vertical position when not being used for loading and unloading purposes.
