Ultra Ramps...just sliding along. Tips anyone?
After trying numerous ramp for the vette (only to be defeated by the spoiler) I purchased a set of Ultra Ramps from Ecklers.
Now the spoiler doesen't get in the way but as I try to drive up on them the just kind of slide along in front of the wheels. any suggestions? :banghead:

Either increase friction under the ramps or brace the ends with a 2x4 against a curb or such.

Hmmm a couple of cheap rubber backed bath mats might work too.
thanks

:cheers: Try a rubber bathtub mat, maybe you can cut one in half, or use one mat on each ramp

Kind of curious what you paid for your ramps. Got my ultra ramps at Wal Mart w/the optional "stair step" ramps for $27 Seemed like a pretty fair price.
