Default Anyone?

I've never changed a car's oil before. Not afraid to admit it .
Anyone want to show/help me how? I don't think I have a jack that will lift it high enough to get under.

If you take the air box out or if u have a cold air intake you don't even need to Jack the car up, just open the hood, slid the oil pan under the car where the draiN plug is and with the air box out or a cai you can reach, both the oil filter and the drain plug


Takes however long it is you wait for the oil to drain without the extra work lol

You can get some cull wood at Home Depot and lowes.

Basicly try to find some 2X10 board cut the size of each front wheel, drive the car on these, jack up car to reach drain plug.

Here is a pic to get the idea.

Got it done today . Thanks for the advice everyone. I jacked it up about 2" to get the drain pan under and then went in from the top. Man was that bolt tight. Everything is a cinch after you drain it.
