Anyone use Race Rampshttp://www.raceramps.com/ to change their oil on an SS or better yet, found ramps that work but don't cost $300?

I have the old school orange metal ones and have tried using various wood and brick to compensate for the steep incline. Not very safe, not very reliable.

I have used Rhino ramps that I bought from Amazon.com, they work great for the HHR.

 

X2 on the Rhino Ramps.

 

X 3 on the Rhino's.

 

OK do you folks recommend the 8K lb or 12K lb version of the Rhino ramps?

 

Well I have the 8K versions, nothing heavy enough in my garage to warrant going with the 12K units. If you don't need or foresee the need for the 12K ramps, might as well use the money elsewhere.

 

OK you Rhino lovers. The SS is too low for Rhino Ramps. I just bought a pair off a guy for $25 but the approach angle is still too steep. I'll probably end up using them somehow. Just lettin' ya know.

Race Ramps are great. They will work with most low sitting cars or long nosed cars like the SS.

They are strong and very very light and will make it easy to handle and store. They do cost more but they are also state of the art in todays ramps. If you have a low vehicle there are few options out there and this is one that solves a lot of trouble. I need them for two of my cars as normal ramps just will not work.

 

Iam using the old metal ones we have had for 30 or 40 yrs . Don't know a thing about the new type ramps other than there not heavy and easier to carry so everyone says !

 

Are you lowered? I never had a problem using them on my SS.
