Watch what kind you buy. I have an older, steeper, set and they wouldn't go under the front of my 75 without making a step with wood. I haven't tried them with my ZT but reckon it would take further mods as the front of a ZT is lower.

Yeah - they need to be wide track and have extensions so the zt will go up without fouling

Machine Mart kit is usually very good - I may have to grab a set!

I have the ramps from machinemart and would not recommend them. Not heavy duty enough for our cars. Extensions buckled after first time using them and welds broke and ramps buckled with the front of car driving onto them. I certainly would never recommend getting under a car that was supported by them. They were fine working with the rear wheels on them but couldn't handle the weight of the front end.
