Default Purchased Race Ramps

Ordered and received my Race Ramps, 56" Single Piece RR-56. Today I used them to change my oil. My driveway slopes down so took advantage of this and put the ramps on the decline and drove the car up on the ramps. Even tho the car was up on the ramps the car was tilted down. Car in park, set the e-brake, chocked the wheels and was all set. No lifting the front end then the back end to drain the oil. The ramps make it fast and easy. If you are on the fence about these ramps because of the price let me assure you it is money well spent. Even tho the ramps are rather large they are light so easy to store on a shelf or hang from the attached straps.

I have these as well. Good product for the cost. Of course, a scissor lift or full 2 post is optimal, but not even close in price comparison.

I really like and often use my four 10” cribs from Race Ramps as well. Not as convenient as driving up ramps, but do allow me to get the whole car up in a safe manner.

Do you put the front up on the cribs first and then the rear?

Many thanks
