Anyone here use these ramps, great thing about them is that the don't take up a load of space when not in use:

I have also seen them for a much cheaper price here, although does mean ordering from CZ...:

I have seen some posts where there was a group buy from Uni-max for the older type of ramps but I was just wondering if anyone has had any bad experiences ordering from Uni-Max?

Thanks guys, had seen that other topic before but was hoping to get some feedback on whether Uni-max has been reliable with the products and ordering process in the past?

Interesting tip DarkMatter, would ratchet strap around each wheel and ramp plate do the trick? Do you have the 'new' type ones or the original set that I have also seen posted about? I would like 2 sets but funds are limited hence erring towards the better price of the Unimax site. I bet even with a hefty courier charge it is still well below the CJAuto's price......

Thanks all, think I will just chance it and order from UniMax, these are a new type compared to some of the older ones I have seen:







I don't have much space in my garage so I am investing in as compact items as I can get! Anyone know if the hydraulic hoses from the foot pump are long enough to reach both wheels on the side of a T350. As they have a short wheelbase it might just make it.....

Thanks Mack2, reassuring that others have ordered without issues. Will give them a try. At probably about £200 saving over CJAuto s ones it is worth the extra hassle!

Just out of interest are your hoses long enough to reach each wheel on the one side?

Placed order just now, total cost looks to be around £355 so good saving on the CJAutos ones! Thanks all!
