Question Jacking car for stands

I see where you should only jack the cars on the side, under the door points made for it. No-brainer there. However, the area for that isn't very long (wide?) so how do you get a jack stand under there to remove the jack itself? Sounds weird, I agree, but I'm really curious. I once tried to jack the front up by using a point in the front center. It dropped off. Not happy with that as you can imagine.

Good weekend guys

In the rear, there's a hook/loop attached to the gas tank that you can jack on. It doesn't seem right but that's the designated spot in the rear.

In the front there's a flat spot on the lower front frame that you should put your jack on.

I'm assuming you're using a floor jack. Don't forget to chock your wheels too.

I'll look closer on the front. I see the jack stand locations (yes, using floor jack) The other must be hidden under the rock shield which I haven't removed. OR I just missed it.

Thanks

it has a marking on it.. i think it's an arrow pointing to it. or rather a square, indicating it's the jack point.
