Re: More C4 jack stand confusion...

You're fine.

The H-W stands are good. I personally use 6 Ton but those are OK.

There is zero problem putting stands on one side IF you put them in the right place.

With the car up on it's side, the load on the stands is roughly 1,700 lba and your 2 stands have a 6,00 lb. capacity.

I only use the front frame (at the rear or the wheel well) and the factory point just behind the storage compartment (just be careful of the brakelines.).
I jack on the rear jack point location on the rockercover If I'm just doing one side.

Usually, I run the front tires up on my 2 inch ramps, jack the front and put 2 stands on the front frame then jack the sides at the one at a time to put up the rear.

Yes, I use 4 stands all the time.
