Would someone please recommend a ramp brand? I would like to be able to ramp all four wheels at the same time so they need to be able to fit under the body just ahead of the rear tires. I've been letting others do my maintenance for the last 6 years, but not with this one.

 

Race Ramps. Made for low profile cars and extremely sturdy.

 

wow, they look excellent

I just ordered a yesterday. Wound up with the 87inch hd versions from reverse logic. My car is lowered so I needed the extra clearance. You'll need the roll ups as well if you want all 4 wheels in the air. Supposedly gives you 10 inches of space under the car. You get what you pay for. I have the cheap rhino ramps. They slide easily and you need to stack 2x4 to add some clearance. For me it wasn't worth taking a chance and damaging the front bumper

 

A good floor jack & stands will cost less, give you more height, and more options to service your car, ie, taking wheels off, etc.

 

$350 bucks?? jebus

 

To each his own. My car is lowered so it's a process of two different jacks and driving up on planks. Total pain. Plus for quick oil changes, exhaust, and suspension work these can't beat ramps. I have 3 different cars all low so it was worth the investment

 

^^^this 1000 times.....
I used to go through the same PITA when working under the car and finally decided on a set of 56" 2 piece race ramps. I will never go back to floor jacks.
They weight only 10lbs each and yet are so strong. Perfect for lowered cars.
Feel so much secure while under the car now.
They're more expensive than the other brand x, but worth every penny IMO.

 

How much clearance do you have with the 56" ramps? I'm debating on the 56" or 67" two piece ramps. I'd rather get the shorter ones if they will clear my front splitter.

 

4 post lift ftw!

 

How easy is it to store the race ramps? My 2 car garage is a tight fit with 2 cars. Can they be hung on the walls?

 

There's a yardstick test on the race ramp site where it shows you need a min of 7.25 on an incline. My mustang is lowered and I had 8.5. The only difference between the two lengths is the height 8 vs 10 and the width is 10 vs I believe 14. Clearance driving up is the same. I ended up with the 87 inch which gives you about 2.25 more inches of clearance just to be sure. I bought the 2 piece so super easy to store or hang up. Wanted a lift but with a small one car garage it was not an option.

 

Race Ramps

 

You can use their tire cribs to put the rear tires up. Yes, they're a bit more money, but they are just about the 'be all end all' of ramps.

I've got a set of the Rhino Ramps from Autozone, and they worked on a stock height, no Boss splitter Mustang, now they're useless.

 

There was a really good article on here about making your own race ramps out of 2x10's. I made a set and I'm so glad I did. Total project was like $25.

I'll see if I can find that again...

 

I did that 2X10 ramps as a father-son project, but i ended up never using them cuz of the weight and i had no room to store them in the garage due to size. So i had to leave them sitting under the back deck and never used them.
So happy with my 2 piece race ramps .

 

They have a strap handle, so you can hang them.

 

Cool thanks

 

I made some too. Thirty bucks. Need to add a level because I still don't fit under the car...
