Help with jacking the car up for axle stands

[smerko]

Hi,

Am trying to jack the rear of the car up to put it on axle stands but am struggling a bit as the point I am wanting the axle stand to come in contact with is to close to the jacking point.

i.e. the axle stand mount for say a hydraulic jack is right next to the reinforced sill point where I am jacking so I cannot get the axle stand in due to the placement of the jack!

Is there somewhere else I can jack the car up safely?

Cheers

i've always jacked the car up on the rear beam, never had a problem

jack the car on the rear beam & support it on the square 'blocks' near the jacking point with axle stands
