Wheel Cribs? From Race Ramps.

Anyone use these?  It looks like they could be handy, even if they are a bit spendy.  $400 to do all 4 wheels in the most basic set.

I just bought a set this week.  I've taken them out of the box but haven't used them yet. I bought the two piece 12" set, so I got four six inch cribs for about $225 with the discount.  They are well made and nice and light.  I'm looking forward to using them. 

Ideally, I would have gone with a 16 inch set (four eights), but that wasn't an option.

By comparison, the Rhino Ramps that I've been using for 20 years get the bottom of the tire up about 7 inches. I find that to be a pretty useful height and this was as close as I could get to that without spending almost double what I paid.  This is also about the limit of what I can lift the car with my jack and no spacers from the rocker rail.

Please give us an update about what you think of these when you have the time.

We have been using the 14 inch variety in the shop for 5 years now. They show no sign of use. Robust is the word 

They do what they say on the tin, they are lightweight and easy to move around. They take up a lot of storage space when not in use. 

There aren't many jacks out there that will lift a car 14 inches with the suspension at full droop. It is a jack up the car, set on jackstands, do the other side, put a 6X6 on the jack pad, lift again, position the cribs then set down then go to the other side ordeal. 

If you need a car to sit 14 inches higher for an extended period of time then these are great.

Started reading this thread last night and wasn't sure how I was going to capture my thoughts. Now I don't have to, you nailed it.

Yes, I use cribs quite a bit; however, I built mine out of 2x4's. Each corner set is stackable, so you can add/remove layers to get the height you want (see pic).

I'm interested- what are the dimensions?

In reply to Datsun240ZGuy :

I built mine 12" wide x 18" long; then build as many of the middle pieces as you want to achieve the height you desire. Below is a link to a video I made on them.
