That looks like an older model. The one I have has all swiveling casters. Either way, they were probably made by the same chinese factory and I got mine at Autozone 2 years ago. Mine worked fine for the multiple engine pulls and sits in my garage just fine.

I wanted the lift primarily to simply lift the 4.3L engine on the S10 to make replacing the driver side motor mount a little easier.... The guy said he would sell for $75....
