Coming from a C5 I know it had to be be 4' in the air which eliminated most DIY from attempting.

How high does the C6 need to be??

I did the axle back exhaust on a set of Rhino Ramps. Can't tell you about anything forward of that

I don't know the actual height, but I was able to do it with jackstands. I put ramps underneath for additional protection.
I remember doing this on a C5 too and it had to be very high. I think the C6 was a little easier. A few pictures may help:

Pulled mine while the rear wheels were up on a set of ramps.

Not sure the height. I did mine on jackstands in the driveway. Just rotate them out over the axel
