Jacking points

Did I do any damage to my GTV??

I've always jacked my GTV at those 4 points on the body side, but they're getting rusty. and one of them actually broke and made a big dent on the floorpan.

It's kind of scary to lift the car up on the differential case, will I break the case (made of aluminum??) Will it fall over to one side before I am able to put a stand on them? Where should I put the stand? On the trailing arms near the wheel??

Thank you very much!! ThX! :D

For jacking up the front - I gave up :( . Cannot reach the subframe or the plate under the spring at all. Can I jack it up at bottom of point 1 (under the bushing)?

or should I life the car up a little bit and put the jack under pt 2?

Should I put some piece of wood between the jack and the car?

:confused:
