Front axle stand positioning

I know its sounds like a daft question,

but I dont want to put the axle stands under the jacking points under the chassis, Im not sure where the safest point is around the front sub frame would be though, to position the car safely.

Please help :smile:

Nice one, yeah these imagines defo show the points where I’ll be placing the stands next time I come to jacking up the front,
I want to replace the front discs and pads at some point in the coming weeks.
I just have a feeling that the calliper pins are going to be a nightmare to remove!

You can buy an Ezibleed system that uses the air from a tyre to mimic pumping the brake pedal.

It is a lot easier to do with two people, but doable with one.
