HUH??? Ramps are uhhh ramps. Not blocks. Make sure the ramps are anchored so they won't slide as you drive up on them. I use a 2X4 thats anchored to the ground behind the garage. My buddy has a taller garage and can use them inside. He set an iron "groove in the concrete floor into which he drops a strip of 1/4 inch plate that the ramps back up against so they won't move (slide or be pushed by the vehicle) . The only reason to go with Phil's suggestion is if your ramps are free to move on the floor. Figure out a way to increase the friction between ramps and floor. Thin rubber like a split open truck tube?
