Re: Jack it up! (MrWiggly)
Other than the 4 rocker points, 1)behind the front wheel and inward about a foot 2) forward of the rear wheel and inward about a foot. Jack only on the frame(painted black). You will need some scrap wood on your floor jack to keep from crushing stuff. You can also get a floor jack adapter to lift under the diff.

You can jack along the outer, bottom edge of the frame - the points are identified right on the rocker covers (they are on my '94). As for the jackstand locations.....just see my sig pic.

Re: Jack it up! (MrWiggly)
For the front, first drive up on some 2 x 6's, then you can place regular ramps or a floor jack and lift. Place jack stands where the swarbar connects to the frame.
For the rear, I use the jack-a-vette, then you can see where I placed the jackstands, I've also placed them forward of teh rear wheels on the frame, it all depends on what needs work.
