Took some picks as promised for members to comment.
I did''t take the car up all the way as I still had a layer of blocks if I needed.
I did get under with me creeper but it was lets say a bit snug in places.
Perhaps another layer next time eh?
I used a trolly jack in the middle of the hard wood beam and it only flexed a little.
Not enough to touch the sill.
I dare say if you use soft wood the beam would flex enough to touch the sill.

I don’t like how the front end is sitting on the blocks beneath the cross beam, on the 3rd photo.😱
A little too much movement from rear to front and that looks as if it could topple.
Might just be the picture, but it looks a bit unstable.
Suppose it depends if your getting under it or not, or how much tugging you are doing.😳
Best intentions meant for (your) safety.
