$30 Craftman Mini Floor Jack...

It's the best and easiest jack in the world. It rolls around, fits in it's own little carry-case, and is surprisingly lightweight.
Lift the car from the front using the interior frame rail (the one that disappears into the floowboard after leaving the engine area). Once the car is lifted high enough to fit two jack stands beneath the frame rails (the factory points inside the side skirt at the two cut-outs). Lower your floor jack slowly until the car rests on the jack stands. Repeat for the other side. Again, make sure that you use the rear access panel position for the rears, and for the fronts, place the jackstands at the front factory jack points. The car will rest evenly.
If you are changing tyres, and do not need the jack stands. My little Craftsman jack fits perfectly into the little cutouts. It's as if the jack was made specifically for the Viggen. :-)
Cheers,
Brian.
