safe way to lift disco and work under him
Bulli:
Halfords ramps are fine. I often have mine on ramps and axel stands + hi lift to make accessing stuff easier. I ALWAYS back up the hi lift ...ususlly with the wheel thats off....
Or fit 35's ...i couldnt reach the rear suspension mounts to undo them the other day when it was on the ramps, LOL!!!
floyd fan:
I've been looking at ramps for my disco too but I found that the widest ones I could find where for a max tyre width of 210, I have 235's on mine is it safe for the tyre to overhang slightly?

I've got Rhino ramps. Made out of plastic, but each rated to 12,000 lbs and they take a 265 tyre with ease. Not as high as the Halfords type, but more than enough to get under and have a tinker.
LADY IN A LANDY:
Thats a good point hadnt thought about the width not sure what mine are think they are pretty big though might have to rethink this diy business and let the garage win again. :(
Pike:
Nah dont do that itll cost you a fortune....just get some good quality ramps
