If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there

Yes you can put axle stands under the axle tubes, be careful that jacking it up doesn't make it topple, but the oils can be changed with the car on its wheels, no need to lift it up.
Access from in front to get the front axle, behind to get the rear axle, and drivers side to do the transfer and gearbox.

Yeah like Facade said be careful it doesn't topple as the diffs are offset. I toppled mine a couple of weeks ago and twisted my Halfrauds trolley jack at the same time.
Luckily the front wheels were still on and it landed on the passenger front wheel just before it hit my Beemer
