Rollover jigs

Has anyone used a rotisserie-style jig (NOT the Grumpy-style type) made specifically for the Minor? There is one I am thinking of buying but it attaches to the bumper bars and I am concerned whether the centre of gravity wouldn't be right for turning the car over. It comes with a self-balancing tool but I can't see how this will cope with it.

The best ones I have seen and which are well balanced are those home made from a scaffolding pole placed through the battery box hole and attached and located there with a piece of thick plywood and at the rear supported by a truss attached to the bumper irons. Both extreme ends of the scaffold pole are supported by trusses and a length of metal between the trusses at ground level to stop the trusses spreading apart.
Before purchasing a particular rollover jig I would use the search facility as there are plenty of ideas to be found on this web site.
