These cars seem to be quite lacking in suitable jacking points! This is how I currently have the stand under the subframe:
It keeps the whole front end off the ground, which is not ideal really. Also if you need to get underneath then this will put a stop to that. Put if I jack the car up on the sills then I can't get axle stands on the sills...seems like you are damned if you do and damned if you don't.
No doubt piggy is going to shout at me for "not listening to what people say" again, when there is so much different opinions being spouted that it is hard to filter out the wheat from the chaff! Edit: I'm not quite sure where the "rear lip" of the subframe actually is! Edit: Is it this?
Trouble is my axle stands have a different "cup" to Dum-Dum's versions.
