Casters that swivel on every corner mean the vehicle moves sideways, diagonally or rotates about its own centre, which is the difference between parking a car and placing it. A dolly on fixed castors moves a car forwards and backwards; this one lets you slide a dead vehicle into a bay with a wall on three sides.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eEach dolly is rated at 1,000 lbs. (454 kg) on its own. They are supplied in pairs, one pair handles one axle, and a four-wheel vehicle therefore needs two pairs — four dollies, supporting up to 4,000 lbs of vehicle between them, which covers most passenger cars and light trucks. That arithmetic is worth doing before you order, because a single pair will not move a car on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWill It Fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe measurements that decide it are all on this page.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUnder the wheel.\u003c\/strong\u003e Each dolly measures roughly 15.5\" x 23.5\" (393 mm x 597 mm) and is deliberately low, so it goes under a tyre with minimal lifting. That is the point of a low-profile design: you are not jacking the car up just to get the equipment into position. Check the ground clearance around the wheel arches of the vehicles you expect to move, particularly anything with side skirts or a low front valance.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe floor.\u003c\/strong\u003e This is the constraint people forget. Small swivel casters need a smooth, hard, level surface. Sealed concrete is ideal. Expansion joints, drainage channels, gravel, worn asphalt and floor paint that has lifted will all stop a loaded caster dead, and a dolly that stops while the car is still moving is how a vehicle comes off it. Assessing your floor is your responsibility and it is the single most useful thing you can do before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGetting them in.\u003c\/strong\u003e The published shipping carton is 25\" x 17\" x 5\" (640 mm x 431 mm x 127 mm) at 42 lbs.

(19 kg) and a single carton size. It does not say whether those figures describe one dolly or one pair. We are not going to assume, because the answer changes what a four-wheel set costs to ship and how much you are lifting off the truck. If that matters to your order — and it usually does when you are buying two pairs — ask us and we will confirm it with Ranger before you commit.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eDeep wheel wells are the safety feature\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe capacity number gets the attention, but the wells are what keep the vehicle where you put it. Each dolly has a deep, cradled well that the tyre drops into, and the tyre sits below the lip rather than balanced on a flat plate. That does two things. It centres the wheel, so the load stays over the caster pattern instead of drifting towards one edge as you push. And it physically resists the tyre climbing out sideways, which is the way an improvised roller fails — usually at the moment somebody changes direction.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eUsing them is deliberately simple. Roll the dolly to the wheel, centre it in the well, and press down so the tyre settles in. Then push. Because every caster swivels, small alignment corrections are made by hand, which is what you want when you are lining a car up flush to a wall or nose-to-tail with another vehicle in a tight bay. There is nothing to crank and nothing to pump.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWelded steel, because the load is not gentle\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eEach dolly is a welded steel frame with reinforced joints. Rigidity is not vanity here: when a full vehicle's weight rests on four small platforms, any flex in a frame turns into a twist, and a twisted dolly steers itself. Reinforced joints resist the fatigue that comes from being loaded, unloaded and dropped hundreds of times, and a welded structure copes with the chemicals, dirt and impacts a shop floor supplies for free.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eMaintenance follows from that. Keep the casters and swivel joints clear of debris — a wrapped strand of wire or a stone in a wheel is what makes one corner stop turning — check the welds periodically, and look for bending or misalignment in a frame that has been overloaded. There are no hydraulics and no electronics, so nothing else can go wrong.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBody shops and paint shops\u003c\/strong\u003e shuffling vehicles that cannot be driven between stages.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eStorage and collection garages\u003c\/strong\u003e parking cars tighter than a driver could.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eRestoration workshops\u003c\/strong\u003e moving rolling shells with no engine, brakes or steering.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDealership prep and detailing bays\u003c\/strong\u003e where a car has to be turned in a space that will not take a turning circle.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWhat's in the Box\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eRanger RCD-1TD wheel dollies, supplied in pairs. The listing describes the dollies and their casters; it does not describe ramps, straps, a storage rack or a moving handle, so please do not assume any of those are included. Remember that a four-wheel vehicle needs two pairs, and check your order quantity against that before you check out.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eSafety and approvals, stated straight\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe data behind this listing makes no third-party approval or load-testing claim for these dollies, and this page will not pretend otherwise. Treat the capacity as a limit and not a target: it is stated per dolly, so compare it against the heaviest corner of your vehicle rather than a quarter of the kerb weight, since few cars sit evenly. Never work under a vehicle supported on wheel dollies — they are for moving a car across a floor, not for holding it up while somebody is beneath it. If a fleet, landlord or insurer requires documented load certification for handling equipment on your site, tell us what you need to see and we will ask Ranger for it.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eShipping and delivery\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThis item ships free within the lower 48 states, so there is nothing to add at checkout. If your order travels by freight, the carrier will contact you to agree a window, someone on site must be able to unload it, and terminal collection is available if you would rather fetch it. Residential addresses carry a residential fee. Please inspect the cartons against the paperwork before signing and note any damage or shortage on the delivery receipt on the spot. You may also collect from the pickup locations listed further down this page.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWarranty\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eRanger's written product warranty covers these dollies and we will supply the current document on request. No term is stated in the data behind this listing, so none is printed here — ask us and we will confirm it in writing. If a frame, weld or caster fails, please stop using the set and speak to us before cutting, welding or re-drilling anything: a repaired load-bearing frame is both a warranty problem and a safety one.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp data-start=\"3808\" data-end=\"4186\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/mechanicsuperstore.com\/pages\/contact\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eContact us\u003c\/a\u003e for more information.\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn11.bigcommerce.com\/s-ew8kwapfc4\/images\/stencil\/original\/image-manager\/golden-bar.png?t=1681903157\" alt=\"\" width=\"1198\" height=\"8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"kd-main-product-spec-container\"\u003e \u003ch3 class=\"h3 accordion\"\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"panel\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"kd-product-spec-continer kd-flex-row\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"kd-prouduct-spec-item\"\u003e \u003ctable border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\"\u003e \u003ctbody\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd align=\"left\" width=\"50%\"\u003eCapacity\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd align=\"right\" width=\"50%\"\u003e1,000 lbs.
