According to the service manual, the front jacking point is the cross member between the front wheels just aft of the oil pan cover, and the rear point is the differential case. I'll differ to someone that's actually lifted the car and can confirm.

YES! those two points are correct but then if you're lowered like alot of us there's no way we could get our jacks under there.(except for our rear)

I just use the location where the stock jack would go. For the front, they are behind the front wheels along a pinch weld under the rockers. Look for two little indents in the seam. The rear is in front of the wheels. If you have a floor jack with a plate that swivels on the top and it has a lip on it, take that off or it can bend the seam that you are using to jack the car up.

i'm lowered and use the stock jack to get the car up enough to put the floor jack under the crossmember.
