This is not the easiest place to see or get to, and you will first need to drive the car on some small ramps or risers of some sort. I use four small ramps made from two layers of 2X12 planks, raising the car about 3". That allows sufficient space to place the jack first under the front jacking point, raising it enough to place two jack stands under the two front side jacking points. Then you can jack from the differential location and place the two rear jack stands.
so the flat-ish gray part of the diff is okay to use?
