Center of Balance?

Without getting too technical, where is the approximate Center of Balance on our trucks.
I have my own Two-Post Lift (properly bolted in) in my Shop, but I do everything by myself (unless my son is home on leave. ).
Getting vehicles centered left and right is easy,, with the tennis ball hung on a string, but my real concern is front to rear weight distribution.
It’s been a long time since I put my truck up on a two-post, and I don’t want to become a viral video on YouTube.
My truck is a LWB C-10 with wood bed, and 3950 curb weight.
If I remember right, the lift towers are centered right about at the door handles.
Am I right here?
I don’t need to be flipping my truck on its nose or stressing out my lift, because I picked it up off balance.
Thanks in advance
