Im putting my car into storage for a few weeks and I want to have the whole car off the floor and have no weight on suspension.
Where is the best place to jack the car up front and rear so I can place 4 axle stands in a safe place? And where is the best place to put these?
Obviously if you jack the car up at jacking points, cant put an axle stand there?
any help would be great

jack up the rear using the bottom rear shock mount, axle stand under there.
to get an axle stand under the front i have always used the point near where the wishbone connects to using some flat wood to spread the weight

yeah generally.
im going in the navy so it aint going to be used for about 2-3 months. Where it's been stored i dont want wheels left on incase any1 breaks in. They cant simply just drive out then smileys/happy.gif
also when i return, i want it all ready for a new suspension and a rear disc beam to be fitted and other various things
saves farting about when i return

not to mention the tyres will reacte with the concrete for sitting so long, they will go out of shape and the suspension wont like sitting like that for so long
