Angry Brainfart question

LOL guys I know this is pathetic - i spent 1/2 a year rebuilding my car after i rolled it, but it's been like a year since i did anything to it, and I suddenly can't remember to save my life: What the hell is the correct way of jacking it up? I did it like 10 times but I can't remember how the hell I did it! I was going to paint my brake calipers, and then all of a sudden I realized I can't friggin remember! So my question is: I need to know where all 4 jack stands go, and where to use the actual floor jack on it - like the order of which side to jack up first, ect, cause I don't want the damn thing falling off the stands cause I jack it up wrong. I saw a manual online for my car, but my PC doesn't display the diagrams on jacking, so I just need to know which sides to jack up first and which order to put stands under. I just need the thing on four stands in the end, that's all. Thanks.

Re: Brainfart question

it shouldnt matter which side/end you jack up first, jsut jack it up, and put a jack stand somewhere on the frame, and youll be fine
