Tips on what to buy for oil change!

Hey guys!

Quick couple of questions regarding where and what to buy for my upcoming oil change. What websites are holding really cheap yet durable sales for stands, and jacks? Also, which ones do you recommend? Please don't tell me to use the search button and what not, I have- trust me. I have an idea of what to buy, I just want some affirmative tips and recommendations that might be better in terms of bang for the buck, ya feel?

Thanks!

I would get all the necessary things at Harbor Freight. They are good quality products in my opinion and haven't had any issues with any of them. Amazon also has good products and prices.

For an oil change you will need 2 ramps or 2 jack stands, a low profile jack (if you go with the stands), a drain pan, a wrench with a set of sockets for the drain plug and a torque wrench would also be a good idea, although not mandatory. A funnel is also recommended for pouring in new oil. Good luck!
