Hi Greg,

I was looking at these today, as my local big box home store (Lowe's) has
them on sale for an attractive price, plus I get an additional 5% off.

 I note that you have placed it inboard of the tires - I had given up on
the 5000 model because it won't fit at the jacking points.  Do you find the
stability of the raised car to be questionable with the jacks closer to the
center?

I also have a Spitfire,and the same problem appears in spades.  I'm not
sure if even the 3500 would fit the jacking points on that car.
