vito jacking points

Just got a 112 and need to jack up the front.

Whereabouts can you place a trolley jack to jack up the front wheels at the same time? Finally where should you place the axle stands to support it?

Here's the jacking points I'm using to raise my vito with a trolley jack

Raising both front wheels: I put the jack central on the bar and then place 2 axles stand spaced apart on the same bar

Raising one front wheel: I put the jack with a block of wood on top of the lifting plate and place here:

Raising one rear wheel: jack here again using a block of wood as a buffer between jack and box beam.

I've yet to work out how to jack up both rear wheels together and place on axle stands. I would want to place the stands on the box beam where I'm currently jacking up the rear wheel.
Any ideas anyone?

Id place your jack under the swing arm about in line with the coil spring in your pic, place the axle stand under the "box beam". Lower the jack and repeat on the other side.

Good pics 4xpaws, may be time to sort out some of the surface corrosion before it gets too much of a hold. Also check out the insides of front inner wing box sections, remove the indicators and you can see insided the box structure. Remove loose paint and rust, apply rust converter, a good primer and spray in or paint on wax. Take a bit of time now it will save more time and expence in the long run.
