Try to Jack up the rear wheels to check the suspension. This must be a dump question but just try to make sure, Where is the proper position to Jack up and put Jack Stand?

I put the jackstand under the the box that the control arm attaches to,the single arm pointing forward. It is very close to the factory jack position. Sometimes put a thin piece of wood on top of the stand, evens out the load a little. For jacking, I do a NO-NO, putting a piece of 2 X 6 under the two control arms, and the jack under it. Been doing it for 10 years now, haven't bent anything yet. Get as close to the wheel as possible to keep the strain off the center of the arms.
