Hello,
Replacing rear axle assembly on my truck. Need to know where the best points are to place floor jack and jack stands, so they are not in way of me pulling rear end out?

Thanks

Just in front of the spring mounts on the frame. That allows you to drop the rear shackles to lower it down gently.
