Race Ramps 8 Inch Wheel Cribs for Car Maintenance and Display, Lightweight, Non-Scratch, Ideal for Oil Changes and Garage Use, RR-WC-8

The first thing most people notice about these Race Ramps is the price. I sure did.After I considered the pain of struggling with cumbersome jack stands since 1970 and never being quite able to comfortably reach the part I'm working on, I realized that it was past time I upgraded.These Race Ramps are worth every penny. They are incredibly lightweight, strong and steady and allow all the room a shade tree mechanic needs.The upper pieces weigh only 2 pounds and 1.4 ounces each.The lower pieces weigh only 2 pounds and 2.4 ounces each.A toddler could easily use these for building blocks.Over the years, I've heard stories about jack stands rocking/shifting under weight and even breaking. These Race Ramps won't shift or break and the crib design keeps the tire from rolling.I saw some 2" x 12" boards crack in half one time and a wheel slam the ground injuring a DIY'er mechanic.This set of Race Ramps RR-WC-8-2 8" Adjustable Wheel Crib is 4 pieces, 2 lowers and 2 uppers.One upper and one lower, stacked together as designed, can be placed under two wheels raising the two wheels 8 inches.One piece can be place under each of four wheels raising the entire vehicle 3.75 inches.Before ordering, you might want to test your vehicle and jack and see exactly how high it will lift your wheels off the floor.Another great feature of these stackable shorter blocks comes into play here. If your jack will not raise your vehicle wheels 8 inches, simply raise it 4 inches. Most all jacks are capable of a 4-inch lift. Place one lower section under the wheels and lower the jack. Place a 4-inch block on the jack plate and raise your vehicle again. Your vehicle wheels will raise a bit over 8 inches above the ground. Add the upper Race Ramp section and lower the jack.Don't jack around with safety. Put your baby in a safe crib and go to work.Made in USA.

These ramps/blocks are a simple idea well executed. They are sturdy but light and easy to handle. We ordered them to put under our double axle tires on one side of our rv. When we have it home for a few days to load it before we go out of town, we park it in the street in front of our house. The "crown" of the road leaves one side considerably higher than the other so the rv is really tilting to one side. Makes it very awkward to work on with it tilting that way. These solve the problem. Probably my one dislike (not really a complaint) is that they are a bit expensive. But I guess they're a petroleum product and that would make their price a little higher than I would like. On the plus side, these would have to be the safest thing that a person could use. In the past, we've used blocks of wood, ramps, etc. all of which felt a bit shaky. These feel quite safe & are easy to use.

Expensive but does the job really well.

I bought 2 sets of 8in ramps, I used them to lift and secure my C7 Corvette while performing maintenance and changing the oil, they are very secure, makes me feel more comfortable while working underneath the vehicle. The product is very light and well build, seems to be very durable, a little pricey, but worthy for my personal needs. I also have the low profile to raise the front of the vehicle about 3in from the ground., very happy with the product. Thanks

These are of good quality, allows the car to sit on its wheels, good for detailing or displaying your car at a car show.They stack easy and take up very little space when not in use.

Worked well but there is a little visible compression with two of these under the front wheels of my 3900 pound car, only 1000 pounds per wheel. Makes me doubt the published weight limit and I left the jack under the car for safety. I will probably not use them under my 6000 pound truck. They are very tall which is a good thing, but I needed to jack the car in stages to get them under. Jacked the first side up and put 2-3 flat 2x4s under the tire, then jacked the other side to slide the race ramp underneath.Pricy too.

These are so fast and easy to use. Well worth the cost.

Previously I purchased the 67" two piece Race Ramps with extenders so my Corvette Grand Sport would be able to clear the approach. After a few months of use for oil changes and such I decided I wanted to get the cribs for the rear, for easy access under the whole car on a creeper. These work great, and I will probably put the car on them over the winter to help avoid flat spots in the tires since they are arched. These are also very light and easy to store like the other Race Ramp products when you are not using them, which is very nice. I store them on the top shelf of a 72" tall rack in my garage and they are a breeze to store and remove. Heavier ramps would not be as easy and I would likely need to find a less "out of the way" place to store them.I know a lot of people complain about the price of Race Ramps and in some cases it's justified. I had a lift in the past and can't see doing it again until I have more than a 3 car garage, so the ramps are a good alternative for me. If you've invested in Race Ramps already, I believe these are a good addition.
