I'm a number one personally. The jack gets in the way too much right now. One day I'll fit in the number three category though.

#1 is easier than number 2, but #3 is the best way

I actually use a set of TRUCK jackstands, and I have a transmission adaptor for one of my floor jacks.

You arent a man if you dont have a output shaft tattoo on your shin and a bellhousing tattoo on your face.
