Hmm, I would have thought that there would be some sort of flange extending
out from the front of the ramp that the front
tires would roll over before
they started 'uphill'.... Failing that, I wonder if you could duct tape a
piece of 2X4 to the floor in front
of the ramps to hold them in place?

I purchased two sets of ramps to use for oil changes
and working under the
front end of my MGBs. One set is steel and I got them at
a yard sale after I
had bought a hard plastic set at Wal Mart.  The problem
with both sets is that
when I position them in front of the front wheels on my
shop floor and attempt
to drive up on them they slide forward. The only way I
can use them is place
them in my gravel driveway which provides enough grip so
they don't move.
Problem is that I am now forced to lay in the dirt/gravel for
working under
the car and doing oil changes. Is there a way to keep the ramps
from moving on
my shop floor when I attempt to drive my car up on them?
