The book says jacking the differential at #3 requires removal of the heat shield. Although with #4, I do not know why you would use #3.
They recommend a jack with a rubber pad. I do not think I would be able to justify the price for the one shown in the photo.

Thanks for the post and pix. No need for an expensive jack with a rubber jack pad. If you have to jack at the 4 points under the side skirts, just buy an insert from
www.reverselogic.com. It fits into the recess and provides a place for the jack to rest without touching the car.
