I use several 4x4 blocks stacked on each other and the 6 or 12 ton jack for raising the frame just behind the rear tire and in front of the front tire. Don't forget to loosen (not remove) the lug nuts prior to raising from the frame. This prevents the tires from "falling off" and scaring the heck out of you. Using this method I often see the front landing gear on the jacked up side to be airborne but I read somewhere the other landing gear that is still in contact with the ground is supposed to be able to take the extra weight but does anyone know for sure?
