991 Jack points
The manual says to only jack up the car and/or support it jack stands on the 4 jack points located inboard of the wheels, two on each side. This makes it difficult to get the car up on 4 jack stands.
Currently I work on one side of the car using one jack stand and the jack then switch sides. This is not a big deal, but I would prefer to be able to have the car supported by two jack stands and not need the jack at all to hold the car in the air. Or have the car up on the air on 4 jack stands for some things. I would certainly never get under the car only supported by the jack.
I have heard with 997's and earlier models the car can be supported on the front jack points and the can can be raised by placing the jack on the rear suspension mounting points which allows jack stands to be placed on the rear jack points. This would seem like a very stable solution as well.
What are you all doing with your 991's to get them up in the air? Pictures of alternative locations would be appreciated.
