Quickjack Lifting Procedure Question

[MidLifeMK5]

Those with quickjacks, when you lift your supra (or other cars) do you:

Auto Trans:
1) Leave in Park
2) Put in Neutral with wheel chocks

Manual Trans:
1) Leave in gear with Parking Brake on
2) Leave out of gear with Parking Brake on
3) Leave in gear with Parking Brake Off with wheel chocks
4) Leave out of gear with Parking Brake Off with wheel chocks

M/T here:

If doing brake work(typically swapping pads for track/street) leave parking brake off and leave in gear

Everything else set park brake

Thanks for the replies. I have manual trans and have been leaving in gear with parking brake on. In the first few inches of travel after contact (up and down), noticed it doing some tire or block drag (which is expected). Wasn't sure if others were letting the tires roll and controlling car movement with wheel chocks or not.

Would the 8000 TLX work or would it be too long? I saw that Obsessed Garage prefers to use it for his GT4 Cayman and it has identical wheel base to the Supra.
