Low entry ramps?

[Jcerb]

The saga continues... As I now have a coolant leak after spending thousands of pounds on the car; the leak is coming from the front inspection panel(after floor replacement/tunnel mod) but I can't get clearance with ramp extensions to get to investigate the leak! Does anyone know which ramps (brand) are tapered enough to manage this (with splitter off too) Many Thanks. Joe

Can't you just lift off the front clam and use your existing ramps. It only takes 5 minutes if everything is free.

I'd rather leave it on, as space is an issue!

Blue point and snap on both make low ramps and trolly jacks

Thanks very much for that

I have a Clarke ultra low entry jack, about £150 from machine mart on their vat free days, slides neatly under the Noble for easy lifting.

I also got some 6"x2" blocks. Cut a 45° on one end, and use them as drive up ramps if a little extra clearance is needed

Halfords do a low entry trolly jack goes under mine no problem ,alternatively drive on to a suitable block of wood [you only need a couple of inches] and a normal jack from there.Good luck.

I just bought a pair of 8cm high ramps from LASER, made of plastic but they do the job and let me get my standard trolley jack underneath.

ebay of course

Simple solution I've made some ply wood ramps 6 ft long that go 5 inch high Just drive on then use jaclk

I use a scissor lift, I park the car on it all of the time. it goes from the floor to about four feet in much less than 30 seconds, it is great for the Noble as I use the flat floor, the only awkward bit is when working trough the triangle as this seems to be the point of balance.

Any chance of a photo Adrian?

Low entry trolley jack from SGS, much better than the Clarke ones, which have a very bad reputation for failing.

I also have a set of these ramps:

But from what I remember the noble will only go up these backwards!
