I always jacked mine on the front subframe rear mounting for quick jobs . For longer jobs or where I wanted to use axle under the subframe mounts I lifted the car on a jacking point using a trolley jack. Never had any buckling or problems. Be aware though that unless you use a hard rubber pad on your trolley jack it can damage paint allowing corrosion to start. The supplied jack was purely for emergencies and a pig to use as the handle used to turn it is anything but user friendly.
