Jack points?

Where is a good place to lift the truck up with a jack?

I used to drive an Amigo and the jack it had had a special hump that fit into a little circle on the frame at the cornersjust behind or in front of the tires.

I once took my truck to get some tires and I had the guy lift up the whold rear end by placing a jack under the rear hub. Good place to get the whole back end up in a hurry or not?

What about up front? Where should I place the jack as to not hurt anything?

Use the jack points identified in the manual. For my 04, it says they are identified with arrows in the frame. It also says to never use front or rear differentials as jacking points.
