There's a little rail-like tab at the front on each side, about 4 or 5 inches long with a couple of bolts... DO NOT USE THOSE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. Using those tabs as jacking points will end up bending the fenders. I know the veterans consider that a no-brainer, but I'm a stupid newbie and managed to do that a couple of days ago... the driver's side says "do not jack" or something like that on it, but I looked at the passenger side first and it didn't say anything. Don't make my stupid mistake!
Sorry if you already knew that.

I bought the rhino ramps, and I can't get the car up on them. 
It keeps sliding forward, I even put two cinder blocks in front the ramps, and it still kept sliding forward. Anyone know what I could do?

i use some 2/12s that I cut with an angle and stacked a few high..
cheaper than ramps, wider for the tires, and i made them....
