Call them.....I can't find that thing - not available on Amazon anymore.
It’s probably just as good as the jack stands they sell.Harbor Freight has a steel floor jack cross beam. I went to buy one but they were sold out. Not sure if anyone on this forum has one, but would like to know if they're worth the approx. $40. I have Steeda jacking rails on my car.

I’ve been getting away with it for years.Taken from HoosierDaddy
For a live axle car (like my 2014) the pumpkin and axle tubes and mounts are designed to support the weight of the car. For an S550, the pumpkin does not support any load and the bolts that hold it to the car, are to support the weight of the pumpkin and hold it in place. Those bolts are not designed to support the weight of the car. Sure, anyone can get away with it....until they don't.
Guess that's old news......Post #6I didn't think you were supposed to criss cross the tires on these cars.
I've always hear it was bad for the steel belts.
Front to back, back to front is all I've done for a long time. It's all I've seen any tire shop do too...

OK Norm, you’re getting to technical for me.cross-beam thingi
It's specifically designed to work with their companion floor jacks (replaces the pad), but can be made to work with some other floor jacks if you do something like weld a nut of the proper thread to the pad of the other jack.OK Norm, you’re getting to technical for me.
Anyway found this.
The post you reference pertains to cars with staggered tire sizes. Given the OP already rotated front to back, he must have the same size all around. I see no need to swap the rears.Guess that's old news......Post #6

Doesn't really matter as the thread is about side to side. Maybe this will make it clearer.............The post you reference pertains to cars with staggered tire sizes. Given the OP already rotated front to back, he must have the same size all around. I see no need to swap the rears.
