| Post subject: | Wanted to make a cheap wheel stand |
So I am contemplating putting my bronco in an informal car show and really, the only advantage I might have is offroad-ability. So I need to showcase that with flex! Anyone have any ideas on the cheap to do this? I don't even have those little oil changing ramps, but that would work. I've got some decently tall jack stands I could put at opposite corners?? Or just lift one corner? I'm thinking I can get 24" or so before I lift another tire. |

Trailer loading ramp and something to stabilize it? |

I will be trailering it there, so I did think about a way to use the trailer and ramps... But I might need to build something from 2x4's to get some extra height. And get there early to get the space! |

you could make a quick junior RTI ramp (or full size for that matter) if your trailering to a show. Stack of tires works too. Just make sure its safe, not only to spectators, but the safety of your Bronc with people walking around it! |

Could just get some cinder blocks and make some steps or something. Somewhat easy to maneuver. |

Yeah safety is key! It's got to stay put should someone push it around, or if it's windy etc. Maybe 2 trailer ramps + 2 cinder blocks on opposite corners would get a decent affect. Probably not as cool as one front tire way up in the air... |

to bad you weren't closer... we could build a stand out of tubing (at max articulation) and skin it with bead-rolled aluminum, maybe some buck rivets and dimple died. Some SEMA crap right there!!!! |
