:confused I wanted to know from the people that have changed there own oil. What did you do to lift your vehicle high enough to change the oil. The ramps that I have are not wide enough. Please help me!

I don't use ramps - they're the worst thing ever invented. I use a floor jack and jack stands.

Thanks I was thinking of that.

How did you jack up the vehicle? Did you jack one side put the jack stand there? Then jack the other and do the same thing?

Just jack it up from the center in the front.

You can do it either way, although it gets tricky jacking in the center if you have a small floor jack. Nicer jacks with a larger diameter saddle make this easy, though.

The thing to remember is to be safe. If you are more comfortable jacking a side at a time, do it that way, making sure your jack stands are absolutely secure before crawling under the vehicle.

Thanks for the info. I will be changing the oil this weekend. I will let you know how it goes.
