Floor Jacking S90-V90

Hi,

I have a 1997 960 wagon and am a one car garage weekend mechanic. I use a floor jack and safety stands to get under my cars. I jack up my 240s by the front cross member between the wheels in the front and / or by the differential pumpkin in the rear. I'll then put jack stands under the rocker panel jack points to hold it up and for safety.

Can 960 / V90 cars be jacked up the same way? I'm particularly concerned hurting the rear multilink suspension system.

Thanks,

Mark
