I jack it up from the front jack point, then place the stands on the two side jack points in the front. Then repeat the same steps for the rear. Is that what you are asking?

Just don't jack by your rotor!

stay away from the rotor......................you can jack from the tow loop in the back or the two up front............

for some reason i feel i should add, DO NOT TRY TO USE A SCISSOR JACK ON THE TOW LOOPS!!!!!
