Oil change, Jack stands or ramps with diffuser?

Well, jackstands usually come in pairs, along with a jack... so you'd jack up the left side, shove a jackstand under on the crossmember, then jack up the other side

Well, jackstands usually come in pairs, along with a jack... so you'd jack up the left side, shove a jackstand under on the crossmember, then jack up the other side and shove another jackstand there. And yeah, I'd chock both rear wheels, e-brake, in gear, etc. Trust me, even 2 ton jacks will support the car, remember our Z only weighs like 3500 pounds, and plus, it's not like one jack suddenly took the entire load.
