Raising my Hannigan

What Jack will lift the rear on my Hannigan.
What are the lifting points,
I have a floor jack and a Sears MC jack.
Thinking putting a short 2X4 under the differential to raise the Trike and somehow placing wood blocks somewhere

How would I raise up the front wheel
I still have the center stand on the Trike
 
I raise my Hannigan with a floor jack under differential and use jack stands. Since the differential is in original drive shaft position, the differential is off center to the right. So when you jack it up it will lean to the left NO PROBLEM. You can lift the left wheel easily while it is in the air (rotating on the floor jack) and slide the jack stand under the frame, left side. Then put right jack stand at same height and lower the bike down on the jack stands. I engage the front brake while jacking by tie wrapping the brake handle over the throttle. This way the bike won't move forward while jacking and slip off jack stands.

Hope this helps
