Wink Jacking Up Front End?

hello, I don't know the most about cars, but I do know quite much.
i recently bought a 04' stang, my second car. I want to change the brake pads.

Where is the best spot to jack up the front end and back end of the car with a 3 ton floor jack from autozone?
i know how to replace everything, i worked on my old 00' neon all the time. I'm just scared about putting the jack i the wrong spot and damaging her.

Drive it up onto ramps first (or get a better jack).
