Default Bleeding axle stands

Changing my calipers and need to get the front of the car (bugeye) on axlestands - question is, where do I put them so as not to cause damage. Also when the brakes are on, should I bleed the back wheels first then the front or keep going round until I see clean fluid everywhere?

I'd stick the axle stand under the rear wishbone mounting point on the front arm and on the rear I'd stick it under the front trailing arm mount.

As for bleeding start furthest from the reservior and work towards it, ie. N/S/R, O/S/R, N/S/F, O/S/F.
