How are you guys jacking up your Yaris?

The goal is to jack my Yaris up so I can rotate all four tires at once.

I have four 3-ton jack stands, Harbor Freight Model 38846
One 2-ton low profile racing jack, Harbor Freight Model 92782
The jack stands minimum height in 11-3/4 inches
The max lifting range of the jack is 18-1/4 inches
and a 2008 Yaris.

The problem is that when I jack up the car from the rear I can not get the driver's side of the car high enough to place my jack stand. I can on the passenger side if I take off my protective rubber pad, which I'd rather not do if I don't have to. As you probably know, the rear jack point is off center that is why the passenger side is higher than the driver's side.

What are you guys using to jack up your Yaris?
I have not even tried jacking up the front of the car. I think I know where the jack point is from looking at the 2007 service manual, but I'm not sure exactly where the front jack point is.

Any help would be great! Thanks in advance.
