    Double Checking Jack Point

    Just wanted to double check with everyone here.
    I need to put the back of my Z3 on stands and seems as though an acceptable jack point is the rear diff.
    I've heard some say that this is not acceptable but also see Pelican suggest it as a jack point as well.
    What's the consensus here? No problem?
    Thanks

    I jack the rear up by the differential CASE, but never on the dropped fins of the aluminum cover.
