Jaedub. The ramps work fine. I just wanted to make those who haven't used them to be aware. Oil change was simple. You just go in from the frnt, remove 4 10mm bolts and the filter and oil plug Is right there. As for the exhaust, I will Jack up the rear and place on jackstands. Be sure to wheel chock the front since there is no roll back lip on the ramps.
Happy Wrenching

I tried rhino ramps but they slipped on my smooth garage floor. I didn't want to mess with blocks so I invested in 4 esco jack stands. They are awesome! I lift at the front lift point (with a hockey puck) and put my jack stands both in on that side. Then do the other side. It works for me and it's fast. To just lift the rear I lift from the differential and put in two jack stands (and block the front wheels).

if only i didnt have the damn raised area in my garage i could do this without moving my car...
can't get my hydaulic under the front.

but since i have to move my car anyway, i just use ramps as it's quicker and safer for me.
