The 3500 is the best choice for your Cobra, if the jack is only used for the Cobra or other lightweight vehicles.

Unfortunately, most cars weigh over 3500 lbs, so that is why I went with the 5000; I'll be using it on my daily drivers as well as the Cobra.

Based on the ERA frame, the quickjack will reside mostly under the car, so anything other than wheel/brakes/suspension work may be difficult.

I have a lift so anything related to the drivetrain can be worked on using that.
