Sorbet,
I have these ramps and they work fine. They are lightweight and I can fit under no problem. I purchased mine through Ecklers for almost the price you listed. After use, they just hang from the straps on the garage wall. They are a bit pricey, but suit me fine. Best of luck.

What makes these better than Rhino Ramps? These cost quite a bit more.

Rhino Ramps can be had for around $20 bucks on sale, a 1 foot length of 2 by 4 on each and you will clear the plastic air dam. For around $10 I made some ramp extenders. (See my website under C4 mods)

I know all Corvette owners are rich, but almost $200 for plastic ramps is crazy.

thanks for the reply everyone ,
these ramps are not cheap but i think they will pay for themselfs after a couple of uses, the chevy dealer hit me for $79.95
for a mobil 1 oil change, plus i dont want anyone messing with my baby!
later all........

Ramps are handy for a lot of things but remember you need to have the car level or even slighty higher in the rear when you drain the oil.

they will certianly pay for themselves, my grandfather had some metals ones that lasted for a long time, he always did his own oil changes to his truck, and he would say how much he was saving by doing it himself

I just jack mine up with a floor jack and then put jack stands all the way around! It's easy!
