Jack'n a Jeep

I've got a Jeep Cherokee that needs the tires rotated. A friend of mine
suggested putting my floor jack under the pumkin on the axle and raising
it that way. That would do the trick except could I damage the pumkin or
axle? I don't want to take the chance with out knowing for sure.

That is a bad thing to do with the newer Jeeps. The tubes seem to
bend. One wheel at a time still. You also need to torque the wheels on
to prevent disk or drum warp. They call for something like 85 to 115.
I use 95 or so.
