This is my method, I take no responsibility for any negative results thereof.

I put the jack on the rear jack point (ahead of the rear wheel) and lift the entire side of the car, putting a jack stand under the front jack point and a stand under the rear crossmember. Repeat for the other side. Car is now supported by four stands and level.

I've been doing the same since 2001 with no issues.
