    Also floor plating is a right Bas if its on the extremities

    i lifted the car on the ramp, then put pallets under the wheels, let down the ramps and left my car 4 foot in the air on its wheels - access to fuel lines etc was then ok..

      Like your thinking there... could make that idea a bit more elegant with super height axle stands that can be used once the car is up that high - fabricated from scaffold poles or whatever.
