Thanks for all the input. I think i will pick up a set of rhino ramps and give that a try first. Sounds like the easiest way. So the stock frontend does not scrape at all while using the ramps rite?

At stock height, no scrape.

I usually just take it to a place that has a pit. I'd rather pay someone $20 to do it there than waste my time jacking up the car. My car is extremely low with the lip kit. The only way I'm able to get my car up on stands is using the plywood method.
