Make sure each ramp is centered in the path of the tire so that once the vehicle moves forward, both wheels will stay completely supported by the ramps.

-
Continue driving slowly up the ramps until your vehicle levels out, and then stop immediately.
-
You can either find the correct place to stop purely by feel, or you can have a friend spot you from outside the vehicle.
-
If you don't make it all the way up the ramps on the first try, that's okay—it can take several tries to get a feel for how the vehicle responds on the ramps. Let it roll back down, stop at the bottom, reposition the ramps and try again.

-
Put the vehicle in Park (or first gear if you have a vehicle with a manual gearbox).
-
Set the parking brake.
-
Turn off the ignition and remove the ignition key.

G’day Jeff
Thanks for the great guide! Very clear.
Question: Is it a bad idea to use just one ramp?
Say, for an oil change.

Thanks for the guide, does the same ramp work for a regular sedan and an SUV? or it has to be different height? thanks
Hi Dikran,
You can use the same ramp for either vehicles. Be sure to check whether the ramps can handle the SUV’s weight.
Good stuff. I still use ramps to change my oil simply because the amount of oil left in the vehicle due to the angle is negligible. 1 cup of oil remaining when I’ve removed and are adding in 4-5 quarts (16-20 cups) really isn’t a big deal unless you’re anal retentive.
What ramps are being used in the pictures?
