    Cat-Back Install using Rhino Ramps?

    I tried a search, but did not come up with a definitive answer.

    Can a cat-back system be installed putting the rear wheels on Rhino Ramps?

    The problem is you need to be able to get under the car up by the downpipes. If you have high enough ramps maybe. I put the car on jackstands and had plenty of room.

    Yes, that is how I installed mine.
    The stock exhaust comes off in one piece and an extra hand/eyes will help when it comes to making adjustments.

    I actually used my ramps today to make my oil change go easier.

    thanks, they will definately make oil changes alot easier. gonna have to get a couple of 2x6's cut though, cause i dont think my car being as low as it is will simply roll up on em.

    I did mine with ramps. it definitely takes longer than if you have it on a lift, but it's very doable on ramps

    don't know how low you are, but i've never had a problem rolling any of my cars up onto my rhino ramps (all of them have been lowered). the ramps have a pretty low approach.

    Yep, I use mine when ever I can. It makes jobs that much easier.
    when done you just hang them on the wall.

    I almost need another set.....because my RX-7 is always being worked on.

    If you installed an LSx you will no longer have that problem.

    I'm not saying, I'm just saying.

    thats the direction I was heading but then I decided that I didn't want to invest that much more money and time.

    So the new plan is to buy a used C6 Z06 at the end of next year....need to save some cash.

    keep the 7....just to much fun
    drive the A4 everyday, good mpg
    Z06.....need I say more!
