At the rear you will see a reinforced box section just in from the rear jacking points and in front of the rear beam pivot mounting.
At the front you will see a box section coming out of the floor and leading up to the fixing point of the inner suspension, get it up just after the first bolt on the plate If your stands are wide enough.
There is another  jacking point in between the suspension and the sill, which i avoid as ive had one go through with a nice rusty crunch :shocked:
