    if you look under the back of the car, where the trunk is, there is a little nipple there. thats where i jack when I want to raise the rear. then to raise the front under the front cross member there is a lil place to put the jack there. so thats where i jack the front up.

    with the size of my jack and my car being lowered, i can jack up one side at a time or the jack isn't gonna fit under the other side.

    but yea, as far as jackstands, i usually put those on the sides where you'd normally jack up your car. my car is usually just on the stands for a few hours so it shouldn't hurt.

    I usually put the jack stands on each side of the crossmembers or under the control arms depending on what I have to do and whether the stands will get in the way or not.
