I need to crawl under the car again to reposition the prop shaft. With just a floor jack and a couple of stands, is there a safe way to get both rear wheels off the ground?

It is too difficult to get the top bolts off the U joint and I would like to turn the shaft to simplify matters.

Currently, my jack cannot reach the rear differential and move the jack handle up and down. Nor can I safely jack one side up at the wheel and put a jackstand under the frame where the rear suspension is bolted on.
