But to answer your question, Meaux, yes you can damage things if you jack in the wrong place. In the rear, jack on the ends of the DeDion tube. That's that 3" diameter metal tube facing rearwards (just inside the wheel) as you look under the car. Ofcourse, if removing a wheel, place a jackstand under that bar just forward of where you are jacking. Not sure about where to jack on the front but generally you want to find a frame point or someplace on the suspension that's solid and that leaves you a place to put a jackstand for safety.
I would say if all else fails, consult the owners manual and see where they suggest to jack....;)
