Default Really stupid question, What are the best jacking points?

So, what are the best points to lift your classic up by with a trolley jack?
i.e. Is the rear diff strong enough to lift the whole rear?

Would use a block of wood between the diff and the jack to prevent damage..
And a jack under the front cross member for the front......
