    Default bought some ramps, will these do?

    used my xmas vouchers to get a pair of car ramps and an engine crane ysterday. but just looked at the max tyre width on them and it's 200, which isn't great for my 235's so do i have to take them back?

    also they have a max weight of 750 kg per ramp, figured that'd be ok tho.

    Just not to good on your tyres, but should be ok. But if you want to be safe sell both the ramps and hoist to me. I was looking for both yesturday to buy. How much did you pay for the hoist?

    heh, where do you live at you can borrow them when i'm done. i got them both at ricerbarn.
    ramps i got the pair for 79, crane was 303, but they were having 20% off at the time.

    the cranes capacity is overkill, and i saw the same crane but with a bit less capacity for ~200 at supercheap preston, but i had autobarn vouchers and didn't want to get to preston and have it sold out.

    Ehehe i have some ramps that would hold a tractor but to use them i need to remove my front bumper lol, cars to low to get under without ramps or jacking it up. I really need a crane but to rip out my vp engine and the vn engine. When you do yours if its before me do a how to guide with pics would really help people in the future.
