very solid, as the base measures 12 wide by 14 long.
the extra holes at the rear are for bolt on wheel stops like are at the front, which are welded fast.
the first time drive up those was somewhat nerve wracking, as the angle of the ramps is steeper that what i had expected, even though they are four feet long.
the length was what worked out with what material i had in the pile.
i stopped at several intervals to get out and measure the ramps for any deflection. there was none. boogie
even though i jumped around a lot, and tried to weld so the deflection was minimal when the weld cooled, i still had a built in "bow" in both ramps.
al in all, i'm pretty satisfied with how they turned out, and it sure beats having the floor pan only an inch from your face like most all available ramps position it.
