there are two C-section channels under the front subframe.  they look
like rub strips, intended to keep the subframe from scraping pavement.
very beefy metal.  i place the jackstands inside these channels.

i haven't found a particularly good place to support the rear yet.
i've jacked it up by the rear differential, and placed jackstands under
the plastic covered jacking points on the rocker panels.
