Hi.
To be honest even though I have the wedges I never use them, as the way I use the level ramps in my earlier post I don't need them as the van never moves when on the ramps.
Ramps sinking in the soft ground over a period of time.. Well that's another story. .
ray.

Slightly off-thread, but apart from those big, heavy and expensive Milenco ramps, does anyone know of a set of ramps which will lift higher than about 4" ?
Or if not, then how can you increase the lift when 4" is not enough ?
Our bus is congenitally nose down, and all the best pitches magnify this by sloping the wrong way.
How can I improve on 4" ?

Surely one thing to do is park so that the slope cancels out some or all of your congenital (as opposed to genital) droop?

Here's a bit of advice from elf and safety. Tie some string to those wedges to help you remove them without crushing fingers. I am sure that is what people do anyway, but the thought of crushed fingers .......

That is exactly what I have done on mine. I drilled a hole in the end, threaded nylon cord through it, and tied a large loop, as a hand-hold. You can also hook a bungy through the loop, the other end to a tent peg under a little tension, to remove the wedge when you ease forward/back, if you are on your own.

If it were that easy, I wouldn't have needed to ask the question.

I use some thick ply boards, cut a little longer than the ramps.
I have some drilled holes to coincide with the fiamma ramps, and carry some old bolts which drop into the holes, to stop the ramp slipping on the board.
The boards also stop the ramps sinking in softer ground.

That's why I said "one thing to do" - if you can't do that, do as suggested by TR5.
Increasing the height of ramps is easy, just add wood.
