Car Ramp Suggestions

I know I could trawl through various sites for your reasons, but what about Rhinos scares you? I've been using them for a long time.

The reviews on Amazon with the ramps cracking

I have a set something like that. They work great.

Though I do hope to upgrade to this once I get my new garage built (and paid for...).

I think Northern Tool has one like that also.

The reviews on Amazon with the ramps cracking

My parents have had a pair of rhino ramps for maybe 15 years that I still use. When I got the ZHP I wasn't able to drive up the ramps anymore because they were too tall for the car. So I just jack up the car on one side, slide the rhino ramp under it and I'm good to go. No issues with cracking after over a decade of use.

Maybe they started sourcing their production to China and things got kinda cheap at some point who knows.

If I had the money (or even a garage) I would opt for something like the quick jack like Shawn posted because of how easy to use an unobtrusive it is.

A full complete lift would be the holy grail but I guess it depends on how much wrenching you will do if its worth it or not.

I have a lift. I don't wrench much anymore. But every time I use it, I think it's worth it. Mines only half height, but that's good enough.

But I've used Race Ramps before. I like them. They feel solid and they are light. I've been using wood though because I had a bunch leftover, so it didn't cost me anything. But they get messed up by moisture unlike the Race Ramps.

Honestly I get giddy watching a car go up a lift because of how easy most maintenance instantly becomes. Just watching the 135 go on a lift today to peek under it I thought it was the coolest thing ever. Still an investment, but anyone serious about car ownership can probably justify it in the long run, even a half lift. Get a rolly chair!
