Ohh yeah. A skinny guy could likely do it just on the ground.
Maybe put the ramp behind the front tire though and back up it so you don't have to work around it.
When i was doing the thermal management unit delete on my 2/4 lowered truck,it was all done off a pair of ramps.I have to ask.... Can this install be done with the truck on Rhino ramps? I have NO lift but I did install the mid and muffler on the ground and the truck was NOT on any ramps but it was a p.i.t.a$$. Thanks for any advice.

just a quick question regarding temperature. What should the OIL & COOLANT temps be? And Oil Pressure, what numbers are you getting for this? I noticed my coolant jumping all the way to 219* and my oil temps running at 222*. My oil pressure will get to 55psi. Now the coolant will drop to 199* but bounce up to 217 - 219. Just wondering if this could be contributing to high heat to the transmission. But I will say I did a 120 mile round trip to Atlanta and back and my trans temps stayed within range. Hottest it got was 175*F. Temps outside were around 91*F.
I just did a liquiMoly engine flush and new oil change. These numbers are after those two things. The outside temp was 88 degrees and extremely humid too. For coolant temps I never went over 199 and it fluctuated between 195 to 199. This was in city and highway driving. The oil temps were at 208 and the trans temps never went over 188 degrees (dead stop) but hovered around 176 to 181. And I have NOT put in my trans thermostat mod yet. My oil pressure at the highest was 62 lbs and at the lowest 48. I hope this helped?Just a quick question regarding temperature. What should the OIL & COOLANT temps be?

I would guess your Dad might have installed a 190 thermostat with those coolant temps MikeI just did a liquiMoly engine flush and new oil change. These numbers are after those two things.

Thanks for the input, I already have CAULK04's thermo by pass installed and it usually works well, actually it has prevented my truck from reaching the temps it use to get from highway driving which was up too 275*. But as far as my oil it has been Mobile1 full synthetic 5w20 since the first oil change. And since my last 2 oil changes I have added a quart of Lucas Full Synthetic additive to prevent any wear on the lifters. So 6 QTS of Mobile1 and 1 QT of Lucas. I am at 93K miles probably need to replace my TSAT at some point soonI just did a liquiMoly engine flush and new oil change. These numbers are after those two things.

That'd be cool. No pun intended.... The highest I have seen in the truck was 203, never ever above that. The latest numbers I quoted above were on today's trip. It was about 35 miles of city/hwy driving.I would guess your Dad might have installed a 190 thermostat with those coolant temps Mike
180,but if it's a daily driver a 190 is probably the better choice on the stock tune.Do not remove the factory mechanical fan if you're not going to tune it. If you're seeing coolant temps between 195 and 200 after a decent drive on a hot day, i'd leave it alone Mike.On a stock tune, what's the lowest temp thermo. I can run without setting a code? Thanks in advance.
