Hey just wondering if i can get advice on where i can get ramps for my buddies supra we tried workin on it this morning to install the down pipe but no such luck due to the fact the car is so damn low...any help would be apprecated thanks guys

 

rhino ramps @ canadian tire will work

 

There were some posts awhile back that said the Rhino ramps are available at Home Hardware for about 50 bucks.

 

Is it too low for a jack and stands? I often have to sit my tires on some plywood to get the jack to fit under the rear end, when lifting the back end up. If that helps.

 

Put some 2x 4's in front like a series of steps btwn the tires and the ramps. Then drive up the 2x4's until you get on the ramps. Or drive on the 2x4's and jack up the car until you can fit the ramps under.

 

yeha i tried the wood planks..i made some for my trans am..the supra is way to low for them..

 

What I do is get a 2x8 3 feet long and then a 2x8 2 feet long and then a 2x8 1 foot long and nail them together, staggered 2 inches overhang towards the ramps so that there is no space between the planks and the ramps. Sort of like little steps, starting with the longest at the botom, duh!

Depending on the car, you might need fewer steps or more, or longer planks but it is a fool proof method to make your current ramps work just fine! I'm sure you can figure it out!

 

I used stacked 1x4" pieces of wood and built a very gradual ramp up and integrated it so it would work with the car ramps (angled on both sides. Drive real slow and shouldn't be a problem


This thing won't let me make my diagram :MAD: screwed them together and made the bottom one approx 4' long then 3' then 2' 1' then 6" for the top
