There is a picture above that shows the tire height using the SLX. Doesn't get high enough for those 12 inch ramps. Now if the TLX goes an extra three inches then maybe.

True but, Hydraulics fail & steel can break. Anyone have experience related to my race ramp question?

I know this is a late reply but I keep my QJ on my garage floor and just drive over it with my C8

as long as you do t run over the hoses you are fine.
