Default Which Quick Jack for a C5

I tried searching CF but didn't find any references so which Quick Jack is best for a C5?

I'm thinking the 5000 SLX. Do I need the extensions?

Never mind. I found a selection guide on the website.

I saw you are looking at the guide, but I can say I have the 5000SLX and do NOT have the extensions. Works fine for me.

Thanks. Does it raise the car high enough to get under it for maintenance like oil changes, etc.?

Yep, definitely. I use it for oil, trans, and diff changes, not to mention exhaust removal, clutch bleeding, etc. Its certainly high enough to do everything you want.
