Use a floor jack to lift, and jackstands to hold. In the rears, jackstands under the axle tube right behind the backing plates. In the front, either under a-arm pockets or my preference, which is under the frame where the x-crossover meets it, between the firewall and the wheel opening.

If you can only use a floor jack, then under the diff pumpkin in the rear, and under the engine cross member in the front. That's usually how I lift the car to place jackstands.

Bumper jacks are window makers, and dent the bottom edge of the bumpers.
