There are side jack points as well but there not flat. You would need a hockey puck(there is a specific word for this attachment that goes on your jack to lift the car from the side jacking points or they can bend). Referrer to your cars manual for the side jack points. Also if you have never used a torque wrench before take it easy practice or get an idea of how to use because you can snap that stud like Hulk.

^This, if you know someone that has used them in the past just have them show you, it's cake to use them.
