Would these be suitable?

i have to get to my gearbox sump and swap out the strainer - would these do?

 

If not, i might have to make some up from wood.

 

Thanks in advance

your front bumper will hit the ramp as I found out but was able to put two thick planks on top of the ramp for a longer slope which did the job

yep, exactly what Gary said :)

i have some you can use if you want?

I notice though that the ebay add doesn´t state what width of tyre the ramps will take max,you´´d really need tp establish that first as it´´s no good if the max width is 205´´s or even smaller.

i just made two 8 feet ramps tp hook over my ramps and the car still only just clears . once jou get it on the ramps a good high lift trolley jack under the diff so you can get a couple of concrete blocks under the back wheels . its not a nice place to be lying on your back under a car but this will give you about 2 feet between the floor and the bolts

they are good for the rear even with wide tyres, are you back yet Pads

Thanks guys, and an extra big thanks to jmwuk - that is a very kind offer, but i think i need to get a set anyway, so i might get these and modify with some wood.

 

If i have trouble with them for any reason i might well have to take you up on the offer of a loan.

pab i have some you can borrow if you want?

 

**edit** yes yes, i know should of read the whole thread before replying, but i will have them at mine if you manage to make it down to me at the weekend bud so you can take them with you then.

Here you go PERFECT!!

lol :rofl:

 

I have 4 halfrauds ramps which i've been working under for ages on the V8 and they're brill, perfect width for the tyres and i think about £20 a pair in bright orange :D

I jack up and put car on railway sleepers.

That's what I use and they are great, but last time I looked they were £49 a pair.
