I recently got my car back from the shop and put it up on jackstands inside my garage yesterday. Where do you guys normally place the jackstands on the front of the car? Is it a good idea to keep pressure/weight on the front suspension or does it look fine the way I got it?

Apologize for the dumb question. :rockon:

Put the jack stands under your front lower A arms so your suspension is loaded. Basically put the valley of the jackstand top in the round portion of the arm where the spring sits. You will be good to go.

Sweet, thanks for your response. I kind of thought I should keep the front suspension under load, but wasnt sure.

Thanks again

+1 I always load the suspension, stand under front c/arms and under rear c/arms or axle if sra.
