Anyone with a Mohawk Lift? Or what's a good ramp set to get on a lift w/Stage3?

Default Anyone with a Mohawk Lift? Or what's a good ramp set to get on a lift w/Stage3?

I have a Mohawk A7 lift which has maybe a 2.5"-3" clearance need. Generally if I jack the rear of the car up with a floor jack I can swing both arms under, but I don't like doing it that way.

I'd rather have little ramps that give me 2-3" of extra clearance. Does anyone have a recommendation for a set? I see lots of race ramps on here but I don't know if they're for getting on the trailer, on a lift, or...

I ask about the Mohawk A7 because it'd be nice of someone can tell me "Oh yeah, Race Ramp XXXXX gets my Stage 3 Z06 up on the A7 no problem", but failing that, any lift ramp recommendation would be good.

Thanks!
Dave

Since I hate TTT I'll just say "Any ramps for lifts would be better than no info at all"! Must be someone out there using ramps to get onto a lift...

Best advice so far is 2x10s, which I can do if nothing else comes up.

Have you looked at these? 4 inch clearance, designed for you need.

2x12s would be a lot cheaper

Or, 2 sets of these

The set in the first link are for an above ground scissors lift. They would not work for a two-post lift. The set in the second link is intended to be used for lifting the rear of the car 4" when the front tires are going up service ramps. They may work, but, there is a good chance if you are having trouble swinging the lift arms into place, than the 4" high ramps may not fit either.

Trak-Jax are a 3" high ramp. Reverse Logic offers this ramp with a heavy duty option which is what is recommended for commercial use.

I have a Bendpak 2 post. All electric 220V, no air required to operate. Flawless since 2012.

I used race ramps for years. They are pretty good for servicing the car if the wheels do not have to be removed. The best part is you can drive the car up the ramp then remove the ramp behind the wheel making it easier to slide underneath the car.

I have a 10k Mohawk lift but I forgot the model number. I don't need ramps for my stage 3 z06. My car is stock ride height and I use 1" katech jacking pucks. I also have to lift by the non telescopic part of the lift arm. There's not much clearance but it works.
