Default Jacking the xB

I want to get the xB up on jack stands... Are there jacking points where I can use my floor jack to raise the front and rear? Any info would be appreciated...

I just recently jacked my box up, and their really isnt a good substantial place to jack up the car when I looked underneath it. So best advice from me is to check out the tech articles and read the owners manual, they pretty much tell where to jack and leave jackstands at.

theres the metal frame underneath that runs down the length of your car... towards the front there will be two groves the peace between the two grooves is where you jack it, to make sure look in your manual.

I found the info on the jack points in the owners manual....

I also noticed they recommend front to back same side tire rotation...

Now I need to see if the jack stands will work under the standard jacking point for each wheel...

thanks
