build ramps to drive up on or buy one of those pre made ones.

Something like that or a sled deck works too but they are pretty bulky and big.

My guess is you don't have enough payload anyway.

Tailgate off?

Should have got the 6.5 bed, but you have what you have now. Here's mine with a 4 wheeler and a dirtbike in the bed pulling my camper. I am probably a little over weight limits but it does pretty good. In your situation I would just take the tailgate off and that should work for you. I used to have a gmc crew cab with the mini bed. The long box screw was my main reason for getting a Ford.

How far do they hang out the end of the bed? U don't think it would work with the tailgate removed? U could also build ramps across the bedsides that will haul the wheeler up high. Wind resistance would be high, but it may work for u. Where there's a will there's a way.

JUst take tha tanks off and throw them in the truck, put them on when you get to where your'e going. If you build some rails for the wheels to sit on long enough to catch the rear wheels of the ATV and run them to the front so the whole ATV is on them that should support it enough. Then get some ramps to load it with. You could just fix a piece if angle up near the cab that the front of the rails would slide under and fasten to. Make it easy to take them out when not needed. I would use some aluminum ramps for the rails in the truck and another set to load it with. Then get some heavier springs or airbags for the rear cause you will be overloaded.

Do you have any pictures of your trailer and hitch setup? You might be able to get a longer draw bar and relocate the tounge jack and be just fine...
