Jack stand positions for W126

[HuskyMan]

I have to jack up the 1991 560sel to check the brake rotors and pads for possible replacement. I'm planning on utilizing a hydraulic floor jack under the jack points, but once the car is off the ground where do I place the jack stands?

For the front, place the jackstands on the unibody frame. For the rear, place them under the rear subframe mount.

[HuskyMan]

yes, but can't they cause the frame rails to bend?

[alabbasi]

You can either put them on the sub frame mount, frame rail or on the pads sit on the rocker panel Keep the jack under pressure as a secondary precaution.
