Hi Discomadness I am just about to install a 2 post ramp myself, where did you work out the centre of the posts to be.

I have worked it out as 1400mm from the centre of the front hub, does that sound about correct?

Nuts all tight - I line the post up with the drivers door opening edge and it balances quite nicely Whistle

Do you mean in relation to the vehicle ? I’m not sure I will need to measure it mate. I’ll try and get back to you ASAP. Thumbs Up

When I drive onto the ramp would the middle of the post be half way down the drivers door.
It's just I am right for head room with beams and need to get it as close as possible.
