Where is the best place to put the 2 jack stands when jacking up the rear? I jacked up the car the other day for the first time to paint the calipers, and placed them right near the jacking points, but the frame seems so thin in the rear and the car was only sitting on the inside of the "U" shape part of the stand "arm" (as the U shape faces the wheel wells), so it seemed like only less than 1 inch on each side of the car was sitting on the stands. I guess the frame is not exactly parallel to the ground, b/c I know the jack stands are okay. Anyways, just wanted to see if you guys do it differently? Thanks!
