I won't be removing the tranny myself, but just other maintenance (oil change, tranny fluid change, plugs, etc.).

then you can lift with a hydraulic jack and replace with a floor jack as

I think you can drive onto the rear ramps in reverse then jack the front and replace with ramps.

I was going to use 4 of them to get my car in the air, but I had to take two of them back because the manufacturer put the sloped part on the wrong end of the ramps, and I couldn't drive up on them!

I guess I'm just thinking that if you're going to use either/or I'd go with jackstands since they offer more security, higher lifting, and the option to leave the wheels on or take them off.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Have you guys ever done this? I have 2 Rhino ramps and a set of jack stands. I'm thinking of buying another set of the Rhino ramps to get the car level and safer in the air. It won't be as high as jack stands, but should do the trick. And or course you can't take of the wheels via this method.
But any brake or suspension work I typically would use the jack stand for that particular corner along with a wheel chock. I have an aviation wheel chock, so it's not going anywhere.
The Rhinos are good to hold the car up alot steadier than just floor jacks; more suface contact with the tires. and
I would use them for longer term jobs. then you can lift with a hydraulic jack and replace with a floor jack as
needed. I think you can drive onto the rear ramps in reverse then jack the front and replace with ramps. GL
If you're jacking and lifting why wouldn't you just use jack stands? I guess I don't understand the value of the ramps if you're not driving up onto them.
Works either way I suppose. I have 2 ramps and 2 jack stands, so I need to buy a set of either to get the car up level. I won't be removing the tranny myself, but just other maintenance (oil change, tranny fluid change, plugs, etc.).

Aren't 996 rear tires a bit too wide for using these?

Use on vehicles with a MAXIMUM tire width of 9.5 inches...265 rear tires = almost 10.5 in.
