Especially the pipe wrench, which gets tighter the more you pull. Maybe use a cheater pipe to exert the force more gradually and gently.
As for the ramps, you need a "pre-ramp" with a step.
I have a 4-foot-long 2 x 8 with another 18" piece screwed on top at one end. The thick end goes up against the ramps. You drive onto the 2 x 8, then the step, then onto the ramps. Works very well.
Good luck!
