Rear point jack issue

Hey guys and gals. So I have a couple of 2.5 ton Craftsman floor jacks that I use when working on my car. When I use the front central jack position I can raise the front end high enough to get my jack stands in position under the side lips on both sides of my liftback. This is not the case with the rear. The central rear point is so high off the ground that my jack becomes fully extended before I can get my jack stands under the rear side lips. Right now I just use the two floor jacks on the rear side lips to raise the rear end totally off the ground. The problem with this is that I don't like crawling under my car with just jacks holding it up. I just feel "safer" when I can use jack stands. How do fellow yarisworld members address this problem?

Thanks.....
