Ok... here's a question I thought I had solved. What brand of ramps do you all use that are shallow enough to clear the Vette's airdam?
I bought a set of Rhino Ramps (which USED to have two separate inclined areas to clear low cars, but not now). The package showed a C5 Vette on the ramps, and they said they were specially made for low-clearance vehicles. However, when I set them down in front of my wheels yesterday, the airdam caught BADLY. In order to get them anywhere even close to the wheel I would have had to deflect the airdam a good two inches - and I don't want to contemplate bringing the car back down.
Do people just take off the airdam when using ramps, or are there other reasonable alternatives? I dislike jackstands for quick work - I spend more time raising/lowering the car than actually working on it.
Or is my car just riding lower than it should be?
Thanks...
