987 on Jack Stands
Just curious as to how to properly rest my 987 on some jack stands for the rear?
Any pics would greatly help!

You've been waiting a long time for this answer.
I have read that supporting it by any part of the engine or tranny is not a good idea. I would jack it up from the front side (one side at a time) and place a jack under the rear jacking location,--use a couple of hockey pucks to protect the undercoating. Then go to the other side and jack it up over there, placing the jack stand on the other rear jack point.
One thing we should never settle for a cheap jack stands. While in Europe go hunt down a source of some well made ones!
