Zusammenfassung:A method is disclosed for connecting a trailer ramp to a trailer. The method includes providing a trailer, wherein either two housing members or two pins are affixed to the trailer. The method further includes providing a ramp, wherein the other of the two housing members or the two pins are affixed to the ramp. Each of the housing members comprises a hollowed-out cylindrical stock having a tubular portion and a semi-tubular portion and the semi-tubular portion has a cutaway that forms a substantially half-tubular surface. A single person then initially engages the semi-tubular portion of the first housing member with the first pin, initially engages the semi-tubular portion of the second housing member with the second pin, and finally slides the ramp along the length of the pins to fully engage the pins into the tubular portions of the housing members.
