You can do everything you listed without a lift. If you're concerned about leverage, you need to hit the gym or use a longer breaker bar or pipe extension. I've never not had enough room to use a torque wrench while under the car on jack stands. If you need more room, raise the jack stand height. . .you know they are adjustable right? I just swapped my header yesterday with just the front on jack stands and had enough room to slide in and out with the header on my chest. I've got a 48" chest so I'm not a small guy.
