For a Chevy Silverado 1500, it's best to use a 2-ton floor jack that can lift 4,000 pounds. Place the jack correctly at a spot that can handle the weight, ensuring it's on a flat, level surface that can support the base of the jack. To be safe, always have jack stands for extra support when your car is raised. This way, if the jack malfunctions or leaks, your vehicle won't fall on you. Before starting any repairs, make sure your car is in park and the parking brake is on. Also, avoid working on sloped surfaces when lifting your car to prevent tipping.
