There are places under the rocker panel to use for jacking, indicated by arrows. Two on each side, one front and one back.

To raise the front I use a floor jack under the front crossmember. But, first I pull the car up on 2x6's, so the jack will slide under the crossmember.

Here is the jacking point on the left front rocker panel.

Just make sure your not lifting the rocker panel with it, you might warp it or crack it.
