Best Ramp For Oil Change?

Topic starter

What ramp do y'all recommend for DIY oil change? My vehicle is a 21 Camry. I'm a skinny guy so I won't have a problem laying under the car. Would be nice if someone can point me to a specific brand.

I've been using the heavier duty Rhino Ramps for my 2020 & 2014 4Runners, 2015 & 2018 Rav4s and 2018 and 2012 Priuses. 16k pounds, I believe for an extra $10, just get the heavier duty ones.  After they slipped on my concrete garage floor a few times, I finally got a clue and figured out to jam them under the wheel so that the rubber contact pad would stick to the floor better. Works fine with the low clearance Priuses...

Cheaper at a brick and mortar... The Amazon link gets you the description and part number... https://a.co/d/hnkNRzU

I saw ramps the other day at the store that have a lower approach angle. This is good for cars that are low to the ground or have skirting hanging down. This makes them a bit longer and cost a bit more, though.


Do you remember the brand?

House brand. Princess Auto is a Canadian imitation of Harbor Fright.

Thanks, no doubt something similar would be available in the U.S. Sometimes it would be more convenient using ramps instead of hauling out the floor jack and stands.


A lot more convenient. Oil changes are a breeze.

I use this for a 2022 Civic Sport trim which is a very close to the ground car, and it brings it up enough to do an oil change.
