I'd actually not necessarily recomend the front brace if you can get your floor jack to the rear one. I've used the front one, but if you look at it, the rear one is better reenforced.

You can use the rear end housing to jack up the rear. Crossmember up front. Its fairly easy to tell once you get under the car to see. I would think you'd have to do the front first.

Glad to help. I felt like kind of a moron having to call up a former member and ask him where to jack at. lol

The scissor locations were apparent but I was scheptical with the front. Until I just said hell with it and did it this way.
