Default Rhino Ramps

In another of my threads somebody suggested getting some Rhino Ramps for easy access. How much clearance do these provide on our cars (stock height)?Enough to have comfortable access to the rear suspension?

I have the Rhino Ramps but I'm out of town. Google it. I was on their site before and they have the specs listed.

i have a set at home, ill measure them when i leave work. (work on a saturday...[:'(]).

but you would have more than enough clearance to change oil, exhaust work...anything you'd need to get under the car. only time i use jack stands are when i actually have to remove the tire.

well worth the money IMO.

Thanks. How much did you pay for them? Which ones did you get? Where did you buy them?

i got my set at advance auto parts - they definitely provide more than enough room to comfortably slide underneath the car for suspension work, oil change, etc. my only problem is now i can't use em up front cuz of the pro kit and the cdc chin. but, the front doesn't rub if i use em in the back. anyway, they're a nice buy.

Get some longer pieces of wood or something to use to drive onto the ramps.

Go to homedepot and have them cut you up a 2x8 or 2x10 into 2 foot lengths. Lay those down infront of the ramps and you'll have plenty of clearance. A 2x8 cost about $8 and they'll cut it for free.
