I would strongly recommend that you get something else in there in contact with the jacking pad - and not just the wheel to save it if it falls. It happened to me once when working on the front. The OEM jack is poor - especially when fully extended. It just doesnt like sideways forces at all and when removing the calipers you may need to apply some force in removing the caliper bolts. (One of my rear calipers came off really easy and the other didnt!)
