Hi, this is Steven J, Here we discussed How do you put a car ramp on a car? For further details, You can visit our official website (cartnano.com).

You will have to first find a ramp that is suitable for your car. It should be wide enough to accommodate your vehicle and long enough. You will also have to be able to attach it to the car.

Usually, oil change ramps are fixed to the vehicle by placing them at the rear or front. Most ramps have an attachment system, which is usually a clamp. You can also get one of the straps that are used for anchoring lawn chairs and other objects.

This can be a tricky project if you are working with a car that you do not know anything about. If possible, check with the manufacturer of your car to see if they offer an option to put a car ramp on a car.

 Some will not recommend this and will warn you of some possible dangers. If you need the oil change ramp to be used with a vehicle that you do not own, you might have to sleep on someone's couch for a few days.

What are safer ramps or jack stands?

Jack Stands are safer than ramps because you can't stand on the ramps. You are basically balancing on the two ramps while lifting the car. With jack stands, the jack stands make a triangle so the car can't fall over.

The heights that the ramps raise the car make you taller than the car. The car can fall over you and crush you. The car does get very high with the ramps, but it's higher than the stands because of the triangle under the car.

There are two ways to lift a car to change tires, ramps or a hydraulic lift. Both can be dangerous depending on what you are doing and how you are doing it.

Jack stands are generally safer than oil change ramps, because they are solid and do not have anything that can slip out of place and fall on your car. One wrong move with a jack stand and you can drop the car on yourself.

How high should car ramps be?

Car ramps have to be a specific height to make them safe for the car to drive on it. That height is called ‘acceptable limits’ and the basis of this calculation is done using the weight of the car. The weight of a car is given in kilograms, so you need to multiply this number by 0.45 to get the answer in pounds.

For example, if a car weighs 1,500 kg, the acceptable limit would be 45 x 1500 which is equal to 6750 pounds. The exact same principles apply to ramps that a car can drive on.

That height is called ‘working limit’ and this is calculated using the same weight of the car, but as you can see it results in almost twice the height than the acceptable limits. Using this information, you can easily calculate the height of your ramps.
