Anyone using the 56" Race Ramps?

[foghat]

If so, I assume no clearance issues? How do you like them?

I am looking at the 2-piece model.

Both ramps can hold a total of 3,000lbs. Plenty I would imagine for lifting the front of the car.

I bought a set shortly after getting the Mustang. Been using steel ones or rhino ramps for years. These are by far easier. Much wider, better angle/slope and plenty of clearence.

Same here. They work well.

I was sort of looking at the rhino ramps as well. Cost a lot less, but the Race Ramps definitely seem to be the superior product.

Those are Rhino Ramps, no? Jack stands as an extra precaution I guess?

Do you know what the clearance is like towards the transmission (if using stands at front of vehicle). Am wondering if I'll be able to squeeze in when it come time to install the mgw shifter.

Yes to both. I don't know how much but you will be able to squeeze in. There isn't much room.

rhino ramps fit under the front wheels on my stock height car fine

I've got the 56" race ramps and they work great.

I've been using RaceRamps for a couple of years now - well worth the expense.

What part of the car are those jack stands supporting? I've been considering some rhino ramps but I've seen a few pictures of them after being destroyed by a car that was supposed to be under their weight limit.

They're plastic, don't expose to UV or they get brittle or hit the stops with force.


PS: Jackstands as an extra safety measure are a great idea.

ugh why would you leave them outside to begin with :headbonk:

How is the traction on the bottom side of the Race Ramps?

My rhino ramps have started sliding across the floor when I try to drive onto them. It's easier to just use the jack at this point.

I just picked up a set of Rhino Ramps today actually, I don't plan to leave them in the sun at all, but i was wondering at what point would the ramps give out if you do leave them outside?

Race ramps can't be scooted on concrete. They don't budge an inch when I drive up on them. Frustration free ramps.

Apparently race ramps will not move on you, regardless of surface. With the 56 inch length, definitely have a more gentle incline to drive up, which would certainly help.

I get mine on Monday, will see how it goes.
