oil change link please!
 

hi folks,

I have searched everywhere on the forum.

I remember someone had pictures of the jacking and stand points to use for getting the left side of the car in the air to change the oil.

would someone mind pointing me to it?

thanks so much!

Jeff

try this. really not that much different from other cars:

thanks, my concern is there are specific points under the chassis to place the jack stands, and I can't remember where they were.

A lot of us just drive up on stacked 2x10s.

I've actually done it without any raising of the car. Not so sure about my blood pressure. But it is not THAT difficult.

I prefer Rhino Ramps:

Only problem is car isn't level for oil drainage.

Are they low enuf to fit under the sides so you could drive up on four Rhinos?

ah I have Rhino ramps but never thought about this. very interesting. I'm not terribly concerned with the car being level for the oil change. with over 8 qts. of oil, i'm not worried if fresh oil mixes with the small amount that might still be there.

thanks!

Rhino Ramps for me. Its really a pretty simple oil change. No matter how you change oil in any car no way to get all the oil out...
