Car ramps
« on: Today at 10:50:15 »

Hi all, I am looking to buy a set of ramps with the hydraulic lift incorporated. You drive on, then Jack up to the full height. I am looking at a set that are rated two ton. Are these safe for an omega. Obviously, it’s only the back or the front being lifted, so surely two ton would be ok. The four ton ones are about fifty quid more. Anybody got these , are they ok
thanks……

That you asked the question buy the 4 ton ones. That said...

Chrisgixer has a set, not sure on brand or rating, but if you have his details, be worth a chat with him first ;)

I believe Ken (Mutha Jugs) has a set as well, although Chris is obviously closer to you.  :y

I need ramps because I can’t get down at my age to position my trolley Jack. I have a set of standard ramps, but, once I get down, the rotund construction of my body stops me from getting very far under the vehicle. If I need a wheel off, because the vehicle is now higher, using my kneeler, I can position the Jack to get higher and put in axle stands. I feel this new type of ramp will do all that for me, and also allow me to slither under further.😀

Also…………..I haven’t got any bricks ;D ;D ;D ;D
