Jacking points on the back end

Where is the best place to jack the car on the back end? I don't want to do it where the factory jack goes. Last time I did that I bent the shit out of it. Any suggestions with this. I don't want to bend anything, I need the safest place.

My damn wheel is stuck on the car and I need to let it down hard with my shop quality jack. That's how I got the front two wheels off.

Rear differential - although I sprung a leak in the 4WS. The pipe from the oil pump on top of the differential was baddly rusted and I think the tiny little bit of flexing caused a rust flake to break off. I'm in the replacing the parts now. Real pain in the neck, back, and everything else.

When I took my car in to have new tires put on, they must have spent 10 to 15 min trying to jack it up in the right spot with a full car lift. They were trying to tell me the car was half unibody? WTF

Anyway still after all their efforts they car would not lift straight, the rear drivers side would raise up and not touch the stand.

Chauncy thanks for the link. I searched all over, but didn't think to look on stealth 316. Thanks again.

No problem, for future reference if you ever lower the car, get a race-jack. I have to lift underneath the crash-bar on my car to get my jack underneath, it's a mastered skill, and a pain in the ass...should have just gotten the race jack, but oh well!

FWDs are unibody.
