I've read lots of threads here about jack points but I haven't seen anyone comment on this specifically.

Is there any problem with putting jack stands under the rear trailing arms at their pivot points?

I use the trail arm pivots with thin strips of plywood under the "u" shaped tops,saves marking the paint and my car is very solid on the stands this way.
I only use the jacking points to raise and lower the car,would rather not use these area's for jackstands.
Don't try the original jackpoints like I did,I now have to repair one after it broke (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) ,still haven't really worked out to repair it @ this stage.Attached Image
