Jack points

I want to jack up the nose of my allroad so that both front wheels are off the ground at the same time. Then I'll set jack stands and replace my suspension. Does anybody know a good jack point at the front where I can set my 3 ton floor jack? Thanks

I believe you posted this same question last year and received several responses...

I jack up one side, using the hoist lifting pads, put cement blocks and pieces of 2X8 under the area where the junk factory jack would go, then do the other side the same if I want to remove the wheels to work on the suspension parts. There is no good central lifting point.
I gave up on jack stands because they're kind of tippy when doing one side at a time. This was one of the last times I used jack stands many moons ago:

My old Porsches have a nice spot under the pedal cluster where I can raise the nose enough to slide two jacks in place.
Thanks everyone!
