Gotta agree with the rhino ramps. Sooo much faster and easier to use that jacks and jack stands. I have 2 floor jacks in my garage but the ramps come out every time I gotta get the PT in the air. A cheap addition to the garage. They just hang on the wall on one nail each until you need them.

Yeah, I use them on mine. It's lowered with Eibachs and it is a turbo with a fuller nose. They are great with a shallow approach angle so you don't scrape.
I'd use that before a jack to change the oil.

I prefer Rhino ramps for just changing the oil. I gave jack lifting point because it was asked.[:I] If front still rubs on ramps, add a pair of 2"x8"x24"s about 10" up the ramp to ease the incline.

my lowered PT will go up the Rhinos without rubbing. I have H&R's on mine,

I had some old 4x4 beams taking up space so I made some ramps out of them, but now that I hear Rino's don't rub I will be buying a set, they have to be lighter.[:0]
I do like how I have my homemades built to allow me to remove the ramp part though so I don't have to work around them, I haven't forgot to put them back yet.......

I have to agree with the Rhino Ramp fans.
Bought a set at Auto Zone for around 30 bucks a couple years ago. Didn't save the bill, but DID save the cardboard sleeve that came on them (pack rat? who me?). It says: 12,000lb GVW Capacity, 17 degree incline. I use the ramps for oil changes, but have to slide in from the front, not the side. Overall, they work great. And I have a 5-spd, which can be a bear getting up on ramps.
