Yes, the 5000 LB version. Balance has not been a problem as I reversed he direction of the jacks (turned them around so the car lifts forward instead of backward, just make sure the lock bars are on the outside. I then used two thick blocks on end at the rear side jack point and one just behind, then a short block laid flat at the front jack point. With the two blocks at the back, one aft of the jack point, I’ve had no tipping issues. Getting the air cylinders to and holding the required 50 LBS pressure is a bugger but I’ve really enjoyed using it and feel much safer with this. For safety, I put jackstands under the front rail of the jack after it was up, and a pair under the frame rails at the back. I can now work under the car on a creeper!
