If your surface isn't flat and level you need to shim your frame supports (jack stands) to get the frame level. Using a cheap 360 degree Lazer level and a tape measure can get you with in the 1/8 of level needed for most vehicles.
Once again if you've already done this please accept my apology. I've seen to many cars marginalized by poorly installed subframe connectors and/or roll bars.

I'm lucky enough to have a nice level surface to work off of...
