I lift mine from the rear jacking point on one side and put the first stand under the front point at the lowest setting. Next, I lift the other side from the rear jacking point and put a stand under the front point at the height I want to have the car. Next, I lift the other side from the rear jacking point again to get that side's front stand to the same height.

Once I have the front end up, I lift the rear in the center by the support beam that runs between the engine and transmission and place the other two stands under the rear jacking points so it's nice and level. Been doing it this way for 7 years and it has always been stable for me.
