    If payment for postage hasn't been sent 'til Tuesday, order will still be placed but postage fee to be delivered to your door will be DOUBLE (postage fees to me + to you). Orders will definitely be placed Wednesday morning. Thanks for your patience, people...

    Info I'm interested in edited from first post
    Interested to know something........ They obviously clear an aftermarket front clip as shown and for those of us with 'low fronts' they are a godsend without a doubt ...... I'm sort of regretting the timber 8"x3" 'sleeper' I cut down to the same job as these plastic ramps do, but such is history.....
    ( sadly I know these wont work with BADZX's low front clip and lowered car combination but may work on K1NGZ...... which means I 'might' get my timber ramps back)
    :D

    What I want to know is a little out of left field and I've not seen a question about it through out the thread regarding my question .....

    so ......

    The high end of the ramp is an unusual way of finishing the unit off, is there potential for the ramp to have an additional section clipped in (slid in from the side for example) ..... and are such 'extensions' available ?

    nice wheels ...... have a spare set if ya interested in em ;)

    Good question. I've already thrown that question to the suppliers as I was thinking of making the wheels sit on something flat to increase stability. And their answer is "none". The only way to achieve that goal is to grab the pair of chocks and clamp it behind the wheels once they're up the ramp. And of course using our stock aluminium chocks behind the rear wheels to further stabilize the car.

    I think the main purpose of these ramps is not to make the car sit on them but just to initiate the lifting of the car for easier access of our garage jacks then finally put the car stands under...

    Thanks Arvin ...... good reply :D

    I guess what I was really chasing was a higher lifting "add on extensions" setup so I could do simple tasks such as dumping the oil and filter rather than having to go for the jack and stands once the car was clear enough to get a jack under it......


    I'm getting old ....... and lazy :eek:


    other reason I'm asking.......

    little bit gun shy of stands at the moment

    Whoa, close call that is! Good thing you're all safe! My car's up on the stands at the moment and what I did was I lifted the car up and put them on a pair of sturdy metal ramps. Also put 2 x pairs of car stands under just for safety. Limits my area to work on but better safe than sorry.

    Thanks for sharing...

    I bought a set of these ramps a couple of years ago, and while they're fine for doing an oil change or slipping a trolley jack under the car, they're not really 'workshop ramps'. The design also means it's damn near impossible to chock the wheels when the tyre is on the top step.

    They're actually designed for levelling caravans and trailers on camping sites. Still, they're not that expensive and are perfect for getting a proper jack under the car at trackdays. Definitely handy things to have in the garage!

    Just wondering Arvin ...seems you've been waiting quite a while now for final payments. Any chance of getting sent out all the orders for people who are all paid up / paid up instantly? :)

    Hi,

    Order form has been formally made. Money transferred to my PayPal account for safe payment transaction. Apologies for the minor delay. As per last update, people who haven't finalised postage payment yet can still have their orders sent to them at a later stage (or once they settle their balances) but postage fee will be doubles (or more; depends how much postage fee would be).

    Currently working on the current/updated list...

    If you can't get in on the group buy you can buy them from your local camping store. I bought a set, about $10 more than the group buy price but I wanted to do an oil change last weekend.

    Cheers,
    Evan.
