I have some 2-3' long 2x8s laying around. I just drive up on them (just one per wheel). My humble Craftsman 2.25 ton jack fits under the the front bumper. Once it's under, I put a hockey puck on top of it and position it under the front jack point. Until the jack makes contact and starts putting pressure on the jack point, I have to limit the throws for the jack, though. A bit of a pain to get started due to the initial short throws, but this has worked perfectly fine for oil changes. It doesn't list the car high enough to get my jack stands higher than the first detente or two, though......makes it kind of tight trying to get to the trans but it's doable. Until I need to do more, I haven't been able to justify picking up another jack (or ramps).

Edit: I'm the stock suspension.
