Jack Stand placement???

I have an 89' formula and was wondering where is a good place to put jack stands under the car??? I want the suspesion/axle to hang free. Thank you. If possible show locations by a pic if possible.

In the rear, I always put them in front of the rear wheels, where the LCA's connect to the car framerails (just in front of this point so the LCA's can drop). On the front, just behind the front wheels under the frame rails.

Re: Jack Stand placement???

sometimes the front frame rails are too wide. a polyurthane jack stand saddle can take up different angles and tolerances. they make "saddleS" poly also for jacks.
