I wonder is that right to jack up from the portion where I circled with "A"? Also anyone knows what is "B" for?

Here you go. They are the same for the Regular Z as well. I prefer a scissor lift with pads for these Z cars. There is a spot along the frame seams with 2 notches front and back. Look at those tiny exhaust pipes😳 ugh

This is what I did with my QuickJacks and the blocks I have got kind of "dented" you can see on the left two that were on the front but it seemed pretty darn stable (I put actual jacks under my QuickJacks just in case). The one on the bottom is an example of thepinch-weld adapters for the QJ's but the slot is too deep on the block (hard to tell in the pic) and the block is too wide it would hit the body on the outside. I wish they were skinnier. So I just used the normal blocks. Hopefully they hold up for some more lifts of the car.

I use hockey pucks on my jack stands and jack, never any metal to metal contact.

Me too. I bought four pucks, cut a slot in each with a table saw so they’d fit over the frame rails, then drilled holes and glued magnets (neodymium from Amazon) in so they’d stay put against the rocker panel.
