Default Jack points in Discovery

Hello -- what are safe/best jacking points on the Discovery? Potential spots I can think of are the axles or the ladder frame rails? I have an '03 Discovery SE.

Thanks,
Ed

Ah - just thought of one more thing. I'm looking for the jack points, with the idea of lifting my Discovery with the stock jack, and then putting in jack stands. Looking for the best places (front/rear) to do this so that I don't have 5,000lbs crashing down on my head while working...

Thanks,
RedAustinIX

Time to pull out your owners manual and read it cover to cover so you will know more about your truck in the future.

Just like any car, axles and frame rails.
Your jack stands will fit nicely under the axles, as far out as you can get them, thats great for doing brake work, bearings, etc.
For suspension work support the truck on the frame so the axles hang down.
