Go to the Technical page of my site, scan down to the Miscellaneous listings
and click on the link for raising a car onto jack stands. PDF complete with
photos.

If you jack up one end and then go to do the other end of the car with a
single lever jack beware.  The single arm jacks do not go straight up and
can pull a car off the stands if the jack does not slide to compensate for
the horizontal change the lever makes as it goes up.

Yes.
And some good wood blocking put in place after the car is on jack stands -
before you start your work.
A local guy here was crushed under a car just this past week.  He was found
deceased.  That is two I know of now.  And that my friend will spoil your
whole day.
