Where to put jack
This is probably a stupid question to most of you but alot of the time when I go to work on my car I find myself wondering where should I place my jack. I know where to put the jack in the rear of the car but not the front. I want to jack both front wheels off the ground at once and do it safely. Is there any where that I can put my jack to achieve this?
Also where can I get a good low price low profile jack?
Thanks.

thats what I was gonna suggest
"Why fart and waste it when you can burp and taste it!"
pep boys is where i got mine because the stock jack does not fit under my car anymore... this one:
paid less than $100.
I got a very nice one from Harbor Freight.. Its a 3 ton but its more low pro then the normal ones...
Yea the corssmember is a good place. make sure to use jackstands, never support a vehicle with a jack alone.
