I am looking to buy race ramps for my 07 z06, i have done a search also on the forum, but there is very little information on what actual race ramps (ie model#) people bought. So which one works well with our cars? The 67 XT, 72", or 80"? I also have tried looking at the ramps on the reverse logic site, but i dont know if their site is down, or if they are out of business? Thanks in advance!

I've used mine for the C6, my C4 and also the front end of my '17 F-150 5.0 Supercrew. They are the best ramps I've ever owned.


Edit: I also like how lightweight they are so I can store them on a higher shelf without any problem.

Raceramps for underneath access or trailer access?

I bought my 72” Race Ramps years ago from Reverse Logic and have used them for both my Vettes and friends’ low riding cars. I don’t think the 80” was available then but the 72” has been perfect. No more clearance problems with front spoilers on any car. I like that they’re two-piece so once the car is up, you can remove the actual ramp.

‘Importantly, I also have their “roll-up ramps” https://www.raceramps.com/garage-ser...ll-up/p/RR-RU/ for two reasons. First, they’re perfect to raise the front end high enough so my low-profile jack underneath and second, if the front end is up high, the back end is too low to fit my jack in the rear so sometimes, I use these in conjunction with the long Race Ramps up front.

I have the 67 " two piece and find them to be great ramps for quick access to do small jobs .

Make sure you get the right set.

I bought a set from Fred at Reverse Logic and they weren't long enough. I still required using 2 x 12s to roll the wheels up on prior to the ramps and this defeats the purpose of buying the Race Ramps to begin with.

After my purchase, Fred was willing to sell me the Race Ramps Extenders at a discount but I wasn't willing to spend more money on something that could have been avoided with the initial purchase.

They are for underneath acess

Not trying to be a d!ck but corvette forums is probably the forum that has the most information about race ramps. I know this from when i did my research getting my own. There are a lot of posts showing what kind of ramps corvette owners got.

But it really depends on what you want and how your car is setup. First, how much lift do you want to get? There are ramps that provide 8", 10" or 12" of lift. Next, are you lowered or stock height? That'll dictate whether you get xtenders or not.

There is something called the yard stick calculator that will shed some light as to what race ramps you need to get.

I guess reverselogic.us changed to jackpad.us.

Hope this helps. Once you answer the question on what kind of lift you want and what your height setting is, we can steer you towards the right direction.

All I need it for is to change the oil on the trans and engine. The car is stock height but plan on lowering inn the near future.

No ****? And to think all this time....

Marc08EX

You should either get the 56” ramps (provide 8” of lift) or the 67” ramps (provide 10” of lift).

If you plan on lowering in the future, then you could buy Xtenders Or you’d start scraping.

Arts89Iroc

why you gotta act like a dick? All I did was to reply to the person who was asking what I intended to do with the ramps. No need for smart *** remarks

Arts89Iroc

I think when I do purchase I’m just going to go ahead and buy extenders, going to lower my car so it’s bound to happen. Thanks!

That's what I did:

@Arts89Iroc if you already know you’ll want the Xtenders then I’d suggest you look at the 2 stage incline race ramps here:
https://jackpad.us/2-stage-incline-ramps

the RR-72-2 is a 72” long race ramp with an 8” lift. It’s a Dual stage incline. This is like having the 2 piece 56” ramps with the Xtenders built in.
the RLL-87-2 is a 87” long race ramp with a 10” lift. It’s a dual stage incline. This like having the 2 piece 67” ramps with the Xtenders built in.

The advantage of the two options above will save you a little bit of money as opposed to buying the 56/67 ramps and the Xtenders separately. The con will be your ramps will be longer thus harder to store.

I opted to buy the Xtenders separately so that I could have a choice to not use Xtenders on cars I don’t need it on. And it makes storing the ramps slightly easier.

Hope this all helps. Please let us know what you decide to get.

Don’t forget to use the “SAVE10” coupon code when buying through reverse logic.

I have the 2 piece 67" with extenders as mine is very low. I also have the cradle cribs. I jack up the rear and sit them in the cribs to get it level when I do oil changes or want to work all the way underneath. I also have the roll on for the rear wheels. I have done so many oil changes on all my vehicles, done X pipe, tunnel insulation, exhaust, headers, starter, they have more than paid for themselves. I put some hooks on garage wall and hang them out of the way when done. They are very light to handle.

Marc08EX

@mcandrew67 can you please post your wall hanger setup with the race ramps?

mcandrew67

Will take a pic when I get home, I used 2 hooks like below. There is a nylon strap on the back of the Race ramps, I hook that over the hook.

Race Ramps have ramps for various uses. I have their trailer Ramps. It’s not just a one job item company.
