Question Harbor freight ramps -- any experience?

2 piece ramps from Harbor Freight on sale, does anyone have any experience with these? Curious about the angle with the factory front lip.

thanks for any help.

I use them drive the rear end of my truck on to in order to lower the tail of my trailer to load my car. Pretty sturdy and light.

I bought a set last month, they are holding up the front of my car right now. I love them and they are made in the USA! Can't say how it is for driving up on them cause my front bumper is off, but It's really nice to be able to remove the ramp portion for more room. I'd buy another set!

How long are they? The R1/2 lip scrapes on a 56" Race Ramp with stock suspension.

Shetlen,

Thanks for the real live review. I have the lip off and it should be fine.
Thank you for the input.

FWIW, I have a set of the rhino-ramps. Looks to be about the same angle. Car is slightly lower than stock height. If I slide the ramps in from the front, the R lip will touch and flex up just a little, but it's not been a issue.
