    I went over a corner of a high curb and bent my jacking pin on Volvo 850
    wagon. I will use hydraulic jack. Which places are safe to use to jack the
    car? Where should I put the stands? I will be replacing my rear brakes, pads
    and discs.

    I use a hydraulic floor jack with a reinforced wood pad in the "cup"
    to make it flat. For the sides, I position it under the existing
    jacking brackets. Front: Center of the engine subframe, rear: trailer
    hitch frame.
