[QUOTE=46Tbird;50517]This is sticks-and-stones simple "tech" but I thought it may help someone out there.

It's a PITA to get a jack under most Mustangs, and basically impossible to get a jack under a lowered one. I've had quite a few lowered cars and these ramps are an indispensable tool for the garage. They're safer than those cheap steel ramps that are too narrow for any performance tires and slide all over the driveway or garage floor. I can do almost all my basic maintenance by just driving up onto these, and of course they make it easy to slide a jack under the car to get it higher when needed.

Go to Home Depot and buy a 12' long 2x12. Have them cut it into two 3' sections, two 2' sections, and two 1' sections. They'll cut it for free. Nail them together and voila. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the info. 46T, will be making these soon
