What you will most likely find when the car is on jackstands, is when the car is in neutral (and the cv's are bolted up tight) is that one wheel will spin and the other should spin in the opposite direction. I wouldn't run the car on the jackstands unless you are very confident that it won't come down on its own. (remember Ferris Bueller!)

You probably have it licked by getting your CVs bolted up properly. There are a ton of threads on this if you do a search.
