Question Ramping up the scoob

Hi All,

Last time I did my oil change I had to get the front end of my scoob up in the air to get comfortable access to the under regions. Had a hell of a time achieving so because my ramps are about 1 inch too high. Had to resort to driving on 2inch high planks of wood and then dropping onto the lower ends of the ramps. Driving down was done in the opposite way.

Does anyone have this issue or do you all have your own pits?

Regards
The brown dog

Does anyone supply the ramps that the WRC teams use??? they look very nice and are for this very purpose. They drive onto them to raise the car enough to get a trolley jack under the car, then onto axle stands.
