Like this, lol,, no When I jack mine up I do the front first and put stands under the a-arms, then in the rear I place them under the axle, just be sure your on steady level ground and always be cautious anyway...

That's how I did it. Took longer to get the car in the air than it did to do most of the work.
Don't let people intimidate you, none of the bolts are that hard. For the passenger side, use a 22mm open-end wrench and take the O2 sensor off first. You'll have plenty of room. Also, use a deep well socket connected to a swivel, connected to a 12" or more extension. As long as you PB Blast everything it will be a piece of cake.
Replace the gasket while you're in there. I didn't and had to pull it down again to put the new gasket in to stop the leak.

Once you've done it a few times, it's easy.
