Ramps
#2
I have these, they are ok, but the car tends to push them forward as you try to mount them. They don't get the car very high off the ground either, and since the wheels are not off the ground...just on the ramps... I have to wonder what I was thinking when I got them Oh well !

I added an extra 2 x 8 and some wheels to move them around. These ramps are not cheaper and weigh more than Rhino Ramps, but are MUCH easier to drive up on.

that's the same type ramp i built a couple of years ago even before i got my 8. i used 2X6's and this ramp system has worked with dodge trucks, little toyotas and my 8 after the dealer does the first oil change.

I have these same ramps (Rhino, from WalMart), and they work fine for me. I basically only use them when I'm changing my oil or removing the front bumper for whatever reason. I've never had any problem with them sliding on me. I guess it depends on how smooth the floor you are working on is. I use them in a standard asphalt driveway.

Better solution, get one of these (you can find much cheaper than this too - mine was sears and was ~$180), you can lift the front, back or either side, then put some jack stands under it... and it's easily portable. A bit more but worth it...

I have some cheap *** ramps and use 2x8's 5ft. long to up my front end which is fairly low and works fine,though I don't have a solution yet to lift the sides because of the skirts, but once the fronts in the stratosphere I use my cheap *** roller jack for the side lift, which also works ok. I guess its a matter of choice
