George,
I was successful putting a good sized floor jack under the
crossmember behind the oil pan. Did make a rubber pad from piece of
tire tread for contact point. That raises both front wheels off at
the same time. This way you will have unencumbered access for the
jackstands on the frame rails on both sides.
As for the rear wheels, use the differential as the jack point.
Never caused me a problem.
Used this method on my 80 300SD (W116)...... Now in a Kalamazoo MI
home.
What Chuck said is what I've always done and what I've seen done by the
mechanics I've used!
