Guide; Jacking and Support
#26
Definitely better off using axle stands under the sill jacking points, as 306puggy says it'll give you a wider footprint, ie more stable so there's less chance of being able to tip the car over, and better access underneath. Would only put stands under subframe mounting points if I didn't have any other option myself, but there's nothing wrong with doing it if you're not going to be putrting a lot of force on anything.

If i'm being picky you shouldn't put axle stands under the rear shocks like that, for the same reason you shouldn't support the car on the wishbones - it's a suspended item, therefore the car can still move and is not secure. Putting stands under the beam itself would be better, although still not ideal.
