going to try a different loader just for the hell of it. going from what i think they call a super sport loader to a river loader. i trimmed the SS loader to an 1/8'' above keel. do i do the same with the river loader? as it is it hangs down 1 1/8'' below keel but if if cut it back i will have to cut off about a 3rd of the entire ramp. this is not leaving much ramp left to load impeller. only about 6''. any help on this would be great.

I would run it the way it is and work it from there.
Our ramp loader hung down about 3/8" at the outside edges

The vertical fin depth below the keel is virtually irrelevant. (jumping an a major assumption here.).
The important thing is that the horizontal "wings" are not too deep below the keel.
If it is with 1/4" to the keel I would run it and see what it does, just be cautious on a herd shut down and expect the unexpected. P Be sure to use the appropriate hardware (most important).
