Vengeance Ramp Cable Support

Does anyone know what the support weight of ramp support cables are when they are supporting the ramp as a deck? Cables look very strong, I am concerned about the connection point on the camper. I contacted Vengeance, she said she would get back with me weeks ago, think I got blown off.

Most likely the connection point is the weak link, not the cable. Wire rope, or as most people refer to it, cable, is very strong. Pretty much the only time to worry about wire rope is when it has been kinked or there are any strands that are abraded or broken. If the manufacturer doesn't know the weight limit of what they make, likely no one else may either. I recommend measuring the diameter of the wire rope cable and researching the lowest working strength rating of similar diameter cable.
