Those cross members that you'd "slide" the pads inward are not strong enough to support any weight! The weight is supported by the outside scissor braces. Moving them would be a death trap! In fact, if you brought it up I'd dare say that if you stood on those cross members in the center the thing would collapse.
For that reason, I'd also suggest that once lifted, you'd probably not lean against the car. It is doubtful this thing would support much side-to-side motion.
This is inappropriate for a narrow frame!!! In fact, given what I see for lateral support, I'd not want one in my garage.
