Here's how I get it done. I jack on the rear pumpkin and put jack stands under the jacking pads and take the weight off the pumpkin. If I need both front tires off the ground I jack on a rear jack pad, place a jack stand under the front pad and lower. Then I go to the opposite side and jack under the rocker panel with a piece of 2x4 leaving space to place a jack stand under the pad. Lower onto the pad. Doing only one tire I jack on the front or rear jack pad until the car is high enough to place a jack stand under the free jack pad. All using a floor jack. A floor jack is something you'll use for 30 years if you get a good one. The next best way is ramps …. or perhaps, better way unless you need the versatility of a floor jack. Mine cost $60 on sale.
