Wtd Car Ramps - Sheffield Rotherham Chesterfield area

Anyone local to me got a pair of car ramps, I can beg, borrow or buy........

I had a pair and lent them out long term as it was easier than falling over them in the garage, but can't remember who has them now ...

A loan would probably be for a month or so, as I've a fair bit of work to do...

Cheers.

Pete.

Cheers Ash.
I figured a pair of ramps under the back wheels and stsnds at the front woul give a bit more stability, I need the front nice and high as the engine comes out underneath..

I have a pair of decent stands but no ramps.

My neighbor has a pair, but he may not lend to a "friend of a friend". Let me ask.

Having as a youth put my SD1 rover on ramps and axle stands to change the gearbox oil make sure you get them the right way around.

I drove forward onto the ramps then jacked the back up, learnt very quickly how fast I can exit from under a car as it started to move about then watched it fall backwards and roll off the ramps until the rear braked wheels hit the floor.

Lesson learnt, I will never crawl under a car just on axle stands all around, braked wheels must be on the ramps and even then I would wince and think twice before pushing and pulling anything about.
