I'm pulling my vette out of storage in the next month. I need to get some tools to change the oil. Well I mean get it off the ground so I can change the oil. What jacks fit under the car? I want to get a good quality jack and some stands that work well with our setup. Anybody got recommendations?

I use this jack from harbor freight, it is a decent jack for home use, I have had no issues with it at all and my car is lowered on stock bolts:

this is jacked up for a header install 6 ton stands I have a smaller set of 3 ton stands I use for just changing the oil.

Even fits under my lowered C5. Get the 6 ton stands. I have both the 3 and 6, but never use the 3

What points are those your resting your axle stands on there?
Also do you use two jacks? Or one? My camaro would jack one whole side up with one jack which could be an issue sometimes when trying to lets say just jack the front of the car up.
