Here's a couple pics of my setup. I usually try to find an angled driveway or something to lessen the approach angle of the ramps.

Very nice - and ramps are from.....?

I permanently borrowed them my old man about 12 years ago.

I think they were custom made, if you want details, shoot me a pm with your email address and I can take some better pics w/ measurements, etc.

For anyone else that may be interested in details of my ramps, I actually found a stamp on the bottom while snapping pics for adv'er. They were built by 5 star manufacturing out of Missouri. Link below.

Finally got a chance to get it back to the dealer, notes and parts replaced below (all replaced under warranty). They did a leak test on the converter and is marked "appears to be ok at this time". They ended up diagnosing the leak from a faulty converter hub seal. I'll be keeping a close eye on it for a few weeks.

1 - BC3Z-7A248-A - SEAL ASY - OIL
4 - W715234-S437 - NUT
8 - XT-10-QLVC OIL - AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY - REMOVE AND INSTALL OR REPLACE
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SEAL - FRONT PUMP TO CONVERTER - REPLACE 7A248
