hey guys, I was wondering what are the jacking/jack stand points on my 94 S15 Jimmy. The only parts that I'm confident to use right now are the spare tire jack points. Thanks!

S10s have lots. Anywhere on the frame is fine. There should be a front crossmember under the engine that will work. Just dont use the radiator support. Rear axle works fine too

i've never heard of that one either WolfPack.
besides the frame & diff, i've lifted off the LCA too. never had any issues-or slips.
it all comes down to how good of a jack you have. don't be trying to lift your truck with one of those 2 ton, 24" long jacks, they're just not stable. have a nice size 3 ton floor jack (or a sturdy set of ramps) for stability. even though your truck isn't low like qtips there, they make some nice low profile ones too.
