Does anybody know where to position a trolley jack if I want to lift up the front to put axle stands under both official jack points left and right at the front?
Is it just a case of lifting one side and placing a axle stand and than lift the oher side and do the same or is it better to put the jack under the front skid plate for example.

I need some crawling space under there to change the front diff fluid.
