i did it on a scissor lift.
wasn't that bad as many describe here.
on the other hand, prior to doing the fuel filter i replaced the front engine mount and oil cooler O-ring, so i drained the coolant, and removed the water hoses from the block and water pump. that allowed me to drop the coolant lines that goes to the front of the car, and i gained pretty good access.
i disconnected the bracket that holds the filter from the chassis, and slide it to the back of the car as one unit.
one thing i do recommend, remove both under body plastic covers, before yo put the car on the lift.
