I'll take some pics and post later, but I used the standard rail jack points behind the front wheels. 1st the driver, then the pass. One jack at a time. Once the front was on stands, I set the rear stands to level height with the front and set them next to the rear wheels. I jack the whole rear up at once at the rear diff housing bracket. Slid the rear stands in place, and presto. The stand locations I used were the two front and two rear body mounts. Think black rubber cylinders with a metal plate and bolt head on the bottom. The two fronts can be found where the tranny crossmember ties in. The two rears are just behind the spring coil, next to the rear sway. As I said, I'll take and post pics later. Only caution is to use good stands and a good jack. And, go slowly when doing the front since you're tilting the car side to side on the stands. The jack in the pic is a 3-ton I got at Sears, along with 2 3-ton stands and an 8-wheel crawler for $99. I picked up the 2 3-ton yellow stands for $19. All good quality and Craftsman backed.

But when I tried this on my car, it seemed like I had to jack the car up incredibly high to get those jack stands under the car, such that it was almost an impossible angle. How is this?
