Like Jorell said- jack from center of differential case- use a good size jack (I like the 3-ton ones) for more stability. Jack stands at Jack points.

FWIW, I used to use 3 ton stands and recently went to 6 ton- the wider base adds stability, plus you can get the car to a nice height without feeling like you're pushing the limits of the stands.
