Default 2005 wide track blob sti suspension help

Hello. Wondering if anyone can help. I've got a 2005 sti spec c with exe-Tc coilovers which need re-building. My dilemma is, if I take the suspension off I need an old set to go back on just to roll the car off the ramp and back on (to free up the ramp space). It will take approx 3-4 days for the coilovers to be rebuilt and sent back to us probably 5 days at a push.

So my question is does anyone in Bedford or the surrounding areas (I'm willing to travel to collect) have a set of old shocks or coilovers I can borrow for around a week to get the car off and back onto the ramp during the period the coilovers are sent away for repair? Sorry for the long winded message. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

If you have a low entry jack (or use planks of wood underneath the wheels) you can jack the car up from the jacking point on the front subframe and place axle stands, do the same on rear, no need for a ramp.
