Beautiful work on the exhaust.

Can I ask for some specs on your "wheel mounts" for lack of a better term.. I've been considering building something along those lines. How much height do they give you? How much lumber was used? Thanks in advance for any info you can share.

they are simple "2x4"s so each layer gives you 1.5" of lift. They are cut in 17.5" sections and there is 3 sections per layer. I use extra 2x4s to use as spacers so it comes out to be a 17.5x17.5 square. The top is 5 sections to give to a flat solid platform. I used 2.5" deck screws to hold it all together. I have had a H1 Alpha on them without issue. Hell your house is built with em and holds up a lot more weight. On the sides to act as stops I used a 2x6 so you can get several screws per side to make sure they stay put.

Oh! and I call them " Poor Mans Lift" LOL.
