So since a set of race ramps is a bit pricey for me, i decided to make a set of my own.

The plan is to use a 2x10 and lay it flat. then stack one on top, but cut it slightly shorter. So on and so forth until i get my desired height.

So my questions, do you guys this this would work? i have all the angles down and lengths. Im just not not sure if these will hold or not.

im 99% sure they will, i guess i just need some other opinions on that other 1%

Update: Got one ramp built. Used a 2x10. ( really 1 1/2 x 10) Gives me 7 1/2" of lift. i think that will be more then enough

 

I'm pretty sure these will work. Just take your time and do everything right. Create one first and then test it before you go to another one

 

I can't imagine why boards on top of one another wouldn't hold. I assume you'll screw them together using recessed screws or something? It'll definitely be heavy if you go 60" long on the longest board.

I bought a set of race ramps but the price still makes me grimace.

 

I got ramps you can use, but the 2x10s will def hold

 

I built some myself, do you want pics?

 

it will defiantly work, ensure you have stops. i am planning on something like this since i can't find any ones local that will fit with the aero kit.

 

i did the same thing, works great. one 32" 2x10 and a 12" piece screwed to the top (screws down). their easy to drive up on and give you 3" of additional height.
best part is they were free, i work in construction.

 

Double

 

yeah def. Thanks.

to jeff: thanks for the offer, but your quite a hike for me.

 

i would like to see some pics

 

Sorry, I got pulled in 5 directions last night....will have pics posted tonight....

 

I've used wood as ramps plenty of times. Never had the car sitting ontop of the wood tho. But as ramps to get up on stuff yea. Doubt that helps lol.
