no pics but if u look under the car in the front ull see a tow hook on the frame. its dead center. u can jack from that spot. Or right behind the front tires on the frame there are some jack points too. u cant miss them. good luck!

Cliff's notes: front crossmember good, front side rails good where material is doubled, rear side rails bad, rear diff good

Those are aluminum and a huge no-no.

You can get under the car to do the rear diff fluid without jacking it up. That is unless you are really fat.

I'm tempted to mill my jackstand tops so they match the pinchweld perfectly.

ALSO, do yourself a favor and go buy a real hockey puck for your jack. Measure the pinch weld and cut it into the hockey puck with a table saw. If you do it right, you will distribute the force nicely with the hockey puck.
