I have the plastic Rhino 12,000 pound set. They work great. They are light and nest together nicely.

Not sure what brand or what they're rated - they're metal, older than me, and don't strain under a 3/4 ton truck so I'm happy!

OMG 4WD! I spit out my coffee! That is hilarious!  I also have a Rhino set, but i think mine are 8K? They are the set lower than the 12K anyway. I still use jack stands under the car after i drive up onto the ramps. Stay safe.

Pine-o as well. Three two x 10 with a 2 x 4 at the end to stop the roll. Belonged to a friend who passed away. Hed get a chuckle knowing his old ramps were still being used.
If you want the job done right......do it yourself.

I have Rhino with Pine-o underneath because they're a tad low.
When the Cherokee was sold no car in the family could approach without scraping.
Giving those steels to my pal (who was always generous to me) felt REAL GOOD.

16k Rhino Max Ramps. Love them. Still have my original metal Ultra Ramps with optional extenders too. Rhinos more convenient to use.

Sold my old steel ramps that I've had since the 70s and bought two 8 ton Rhino Ramps and a friend gave me his two. At times, it's nice to get the whole vehicle up on all fours and have the extra room to work under the car while everything is level.
