shockwave Member 129 Member For: 20y 11m 23d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 06/06/06 12:12 PM Share Posted 06/06/06 12:12 PM I have a set of ramps for my old car but I can't drive the XR6T up them as I'd rip the front bumper off.This may seem a silly question, but apart from jacking her up, has anyone come across a set of ramps that are "low profile" so that you can drive a XR6T (not lowered) up them? If you have, can you tell me where you bought them from?If there aren't any, the patents mine! >:-) Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/26014-ramps-for-xr6t/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest newl Guests Posted 06/06/06 12:27 PM Share Posted 06/06/06 12:27 PM Can't say as I've ever seen any. Hydraulic floor jack and safety stands (appropriately rated naturally) is the best bet.

I simply place these on the second or third rung of the ramp and drive onto the timber and then onto the ramp. Works a treat but yes, it is another piece of crap to store in the garage.
