For oil change only, you can Jack up the right rear to get access to the filter and drain plug. You can unjack the car to make it level while draining.

You can even get away by driving your right rear wheel on a couple of 2x4 without jacking.

Make sure the oil is at least warm for faster draining.

Can you tell me the make and model of that jack?

I am looking at going this route with the lift bars and jack.

Thanks

I went with this one:

Amazon.com: Arcan XL2T Black Low Profile Steel Service Jack - 2 Ton Capacity: Automotive Amazon.com: Arcan XL2T Black Low Profile Steel Service Jack - 2 Ton Capacity: Automotive

It will reach anywhere under my car (lowered) Quality is decent.
