Also look in your car manual.

The manual sucks it says to use the metal lip that runs under the car and it will bend and then look like crap. About 1" to 2" behide that there is a bigflat spot where sub frames would go in the front and to make it easy in the rear put the jack stands under the axle.

I have the BMR boxed subframes that work perfectly for jacking the car up. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
