Review on 🏎️ RR-TJ Trak-Jax Race Ramps - Pack of 2 by Jeff Zamora

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Racing ramps worked well for my garage lift use case

So far I'm really liking these ramps. I use them to help me raise and lower cars on a garage lift. The ramps that come with my lift must weigh 80 pounds each and are awkward to move. I wanted something light and simple to make this task easier, so I tried these racing ramps. These ramps are not difficult at all. I can carry both with one hand and not even strain. My steel ramps that came with my lift were an arm and a crowbar for my back to lug them around. I found they didn't slip, so that was good. I haven't had any ramp failure as several reviewers have noted, but my cars only weigh 3,000 pounds each so I only charge 750 pounds per tire and they are priced twice as much. So I've given 4 stars for the following reasons, which may be more of an issue on MY specific use case than yours. At first I would have liked them to be a bit wider. My sports cars have very wide tires, so they spread out on either side of this ramp. If it were maybe 4 or 6 inches wider it would be better for me and a little more room for error. The extra weight would be negligible as they are already lightweight. Second, I wish they were an inch or two taller. My lift is a little over 2 inches higher than the maximum height of these ramps, so it takes a little more "bang" to get onto the lift platform. It works in the end, so my one star output was only because it wasn't "perfect" for my own use case. Notice how some people have said there are two versions of this. One has no bulge at the top, the other does. Since mine was used for lift climbing, I bought the non-pimple version. If you're using these freestanding, you'll want one that has a small lip on the end of the top platform for a 'wheel stop' of sorts.

Pros
  • Hands free operation
Cons
  • Very expensive
