Having never used hydraulic jack and stands before, I'd like to know if it's possible to jack up 1 side of the vehicle and then lower both front and rear onto stands. Opposite side wheels would be chocked, of course.
What are best support points for both rear and front, when it comes to putting this vehicle on jacks? Should same points be used to raise it?
I want to rotate my own tires. I think it would be easier to bench press a 4Runner than to try to convince a shop employee that using air gun on alu wheels is a no-no.
Thanks!

 

I would raise the front from as close the lower crossmember as possible. You can put the stand under the crossmember or behind the front tire on the frame. I think the crossmember is a better spot.

In the rear you can jack under the rear axle - I usually jack from the pumpkin if I'm lifting the whole rear end but in this case you can jack the axle directly under the spring on the side you want to raise. Put the stand either under the axle or on the frame depending what you are working on. Even with 2 6 ton jacks stands I still like to put the jack under the frame somewhere where it doesn't lift off the stands but could help hold weight should a stand fail.

 

I place my floor jack just under the middle of the front door, and jack it up (from the frame of course). This lifts both the front and the rear into the air, allowing me to do a quick tire rotation (under 15 minutes for all 4). You can use jack stands for additional insurance, but I have never had an issue just using the jack itself.

I then move on to the other side and finish the job. The only drawback is the inability to do a cross rotation, which I prefer. But, this will work.

 

Perfect!!! Thank you!
About cross rotation.. from what I've read, you should never reverse tire rotation with radials. So, front to back and back to front should be the only way to do it.
