Why not the normal jack points at the front too?

There are keyed jack points, you can get nice pucks from amazon or ebay to permanently install them. Then just drive in and out on your 2 post, easy.

C6 jacking points, but if you are going to use the Blue ones, then need to put jacking puck into the factor tie down slots since they are recessed, so the jack/lift arm does not destroy the smp rocker panels around the recessed area points.

I drive onto my scale ramps, then lift at the blue points on Dano's map. I've never had a lift with arms long enough to rear the subframes. If you are dropping front or rear cradles make sure you load appropriately for the change in balance.

yep, sub frame is more for lifting the car with jack one end at a time.
Just remember to choke the front wheels if you are doing one end at a time, like rear first.
