    Let's hope so, I do it all the time.

    But only with a trolley jack. I'd never attempt it with a bottle or scissor jack.

    I use a trolley jack under the axles, it wont damage the vehicle.

    Safely - well that depends on how you do it.

    make sure you check the drain plug before you jack it and jack using a piece of soft pine or plywood between the jack plate and the diff.
