What kind of Jack do you use to work under your car?

I'm going to need a jack soon to put my catback on, and just wanted to see what methods the rest of you use.

2 ton hydraulic, got it for $20 at advance auto parts. you may also want to invest in a creeper for your exhaust install. got one at walmart for under 20.

i used ramps up front and jackstands in the rear when installing mine. i dont know what type of environment you have been driving in but i do know that 4 years of riding through snow and rain and salt in New York rusted my exhaust pipes and fittings to hell and back. i had to cut off the bolt heads at the cat back junction with a dremel - really tedious work. be sure you use antisieze on the new bolts in case you ever need to work under there again.

Let's just pretend I didn't grow up, or you're going to be terribly disappointed.
