I took a quick look at my 850, same as yours, and cannot figure out how you can jack the car and see the subframe/frame at the same time. And I have long arms.

My 2 jack stands are tall, for SUVs, so I always jack the car at one of the 4 subframe bolts and then slide the stand under the subframe.

BTW, jacking up the subframe to lift the frame SHOULD compress any rubber bits as they are not meant to take the weight of the entire vehicle.

Look for rattles elsewhere.
