Using Jack Stand...where to contact point?

1st

Hey thanks for taking the time to give feedback and post some pics. The jack I have does not have that option. It’s a Torin aluminum racing jack. The so called bowl itself does not just come out. From the looks of it the bowl itself is secured in by a stud that is pressed in. The jack looks like so.

Great sticky, so just to confirm if I may. I can purchase a hocky puck and cut a slit in the middle, place this on the side front jack point raise car slightly then use another jack to raise the front via the cross member?

I bought 4 hockey pucks (this is Minnesota - they even sell hockey pucks in the grocery store). I cut a slot in them slightly off center using a radial arm saw deep enough so that it slips over the notched flange but bottoms out on the rail. I bought four neodymium magnets off Amazon ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 ) drilled four 1/2 inch holes, and glued them in there so that the pucks would stay put. Works great for me (got the magnet idea from this site somewhere). I did this not only so that I could jack it at home, but so that the thing would go on a typical 4-point lift without damage.
