nah i wouldn't bat an eye lid over those quick release stands. There all made to comply with necessary standards, so should be of no real concern.
I've used those types for a long time and never had an issue... |

maybe, if possible someone could take pictures of jacking points and stand points to clear up the confusion?

NOTHING wrong with quick release stands..
Btw there's more weight on front than rear with stands on rails behind engine.. I doesn't hurt to have something under car just in case.. Either wheel or jack etc...

I'm wondering if anyone needing to ask where to put a trolley jack will have a working understanding of IRS's, wishbones, crossmembers, sills, chassis rails, control arms, and possibly diff housings ?? Just in case any confusion exists, an initially annoying American mechanic with over 40 years experience has made a bunch of very informative 'youtube' presentations about most things we're likely to inflict upon our cars. He grows on you. Yes, it's Scotty Killmer time! Link on trolley jacking cars is below for your viewing pleasure
