Absolutely. I had 4 primary 3 ton jack stands plus two addition ones set
lightly in the rear for backup and my tires stacked under the front
frame as futher backup. NFW  using blocks as stands. I have a hard
enough time explaining my bloody knuckles and bruised body from just
turning wrenches to the family-death by crushing would be over the top.
