I'm looking for some car ramps like you see in car yards, the seesaw ones that you drive up and when you get half way they lean forward.
Or something similar. I do a lot of 4WDing so something like this would be handy so I can get under the car to clean it. I'm in no rush to buy just waiting for a bargain in Brisbane

Thanks, those first two are exactly what I'm after however I don't think it would be worthwhile shipping them interstate - would probably cost more than the ramps themselves. Was hoping to find something in Brisbane
Yer, i realised after i posted you are in brisbane. Ive been looking on ebay for awhile now for ramps and the type you're after don't come up often. You might be better off building yourself a pair of these?

I'd prefer the steel ones as they'd be living outside and the wooden ones would warp/rot before too long. I realise they're hard to find I've been looking too, thought I'd ask here in case someone had some laying around ;)
Yeah, I'd love a set too. Was walking down Parramatta Rd in Sydney once and saw some in the car yards. One was a huge curve that lifted the car at different heights and angles depending on where they parked on it. Love to find a diagram for that one.
Maybe take a photo, take some measurements including diameter of the steel, and go to a fabricating place. I don't know how high you want to go, but I'm thinking of making ramps out of wooden sleepers. Bolt some together, cut one end into a ramp to get underneath for oil changes, etc.
I've been searching ramps for ages. So here is some currently available:
