Rhino Ramps
They work great!
I used the advice of a forum member and put rubber mats under them so that they would not slide on the concrete garage floor. Autozone...$40 or $50 for the top of the line.

I also use some old 2x8 boards in front of the ramp as a way to keep the air dam from dragging on the ramp face. Before that, I used the strap from a broken ratcheting tie down to make two ribbons that the tires would roll over before the ramp. With the other end tied to the little hole in the front of the ramp, the ribbons held them in place.

If I have any motor work to do, I back the rear wheels on the rhinos and jack stand the front. You can put it up pretty high. Easy on the back for engine work and plenty of room underneath. Remove the front wheels and you can get close to your work. Now if I could figure who to get it onto 4 ramps at once that would be awesome.

Thanks Dusty, didn't think of that. I'll have to get a better floor jack. (got two junking ones that me and my son lift at the same time, from each side)

I've got a pair of jacks that are brand new at Harbor Freight but the link doesn't work, go to Harbor Freight's site and type part number
95420-4VGA into the search. They work great!
