One you guys can earn your patent with a non-slip tire ramp. I've though about, but not tried a piece of strap through a hole and around the front edge of the ramp with the strap under the rear tires to hold the ramps in place. Should be an easy mod.

Yep. But it helps that my driveway is gravel.

Well I don't know if this is contributing to my clunking, but I discovered my spare tire is loose and bouncing around. Tightened it up and we'll see how that goes today, have about 3 loads of scrap to dispose of this afternoon.
