When I jack up the f/e of my 2000 4x4 I put the floor jack under the lower control arm, raise the truck & then place a jack stand under the rear torsion bar mount. If I am jacking it from the rear I put the floor jack under the rear differential pumpkin & place the jack stands under the axle tubes.
The rear axle is the big problem to all. I think most people do the same as Mike69 has stated and it works... !
BUT... If you jack the truck up using the Pumpkin, there is a possibility of cracking the welds on the Axle Tube / Pumpkin; that will in turn allow the Tube to wiggle out.
