I built chocks out of 2x4’s and use these whenever I’m under the car. I only use jack stands when I need the car lifted for jobs like bleeding the brakes, removing the front bumper, changing wheels/brake pads. I’ve seen too many bad things with people under the car and using jack stands.
One tip I got for oil changes that really helped me was to grab a piece of cardboard roughly the size of a 3x5 card. There is a wiring harness that hangs below the oil filter and it helps keep it dry when you take the filter off.
Oil changes can be intimidating but they’re very rewarding when you do it yourself. Just take your time!
