Boomer TC33 Mid Mount Mower

Can't specifically help with measurements. Can the person that has the tractor measure it for you?
Does the mower have casters? It may ride on the casters to get it loaded but it may not be a problem. Watch it closely so you don't go belly up, lifting the mower deck higher than intended and possibly bend a linkage.
I "think" there may be a transport/lock setup where you pin the mower deck at its highest position.
When I have ramp steepness issue, I do one of 2 things to get the ramp more level.
If there's a small hill available, keep the trailer on level ground and drop the ramps on the hillside so they're closer to the level of the trailer bed.
Put some 6x6 or similar blocking/cribbing under the ground side of the ramps to get the ramps more in line with the bed then drive over the blocks onto the ramp.
I just grabbed this picture off the new holland site. Looks like it raises up pretty high.

Mid-mount finish mowers turn your tractor into a highly productive mowing machine. Get a precise cut around rocks, trees, plants, and other obstacles.
bczoom, thank you for the reply. I am in a situation of "hard telling not knowing." The tractor in question belongs to my father and he is no longer able to use it. It is also not currently running so I can't have someone start it up and raise the mower and check the clearance. Also, I don't know how much additional travel there is after raising it all of the way up before, as you pointed out, bending or breaking the linkage.
