You break a sweat jacking a car up???

I've also got a set of Rhino ramps. Great investment for when you don't want to jack the car up for whatever reason. The Craftsman jack that I have is the 3 ton one. It's got a fairly large platform/cup to lift with and it's been great. The only thing to watch out for is if your car is lowered. I've had to drive the wife's 2.5RS (lowered) up onto the Rhino ramps in order to get the jack underneath the front. The rear is never a problem.

Another vote for Rhino ramps. I just lowered the car tho so we'll see if they still work this weekend.

If not you can just drop a 2x4 infront of them. That is how a buddy of mine gets his slammed car onto the rumps.

RUMPS!!!
