Oil Pan Gasket Change 300te

1990 300te, 103.983 engine, 124.090 body sytle, 150,000 mi

I have the step-by-step instructions from the MB workshop manual. I have read all the posts relating to changing the oil pan gasket, but still not sure if I can pull it off without an engine hoist. I read of one person jacking up with two floor jacks. One on the AC mount and one on the PS mount.

I have one floor jack, 2 sets of jack stands, and one set of ramps. I have done just about every other repair on this car with the help of this forum. I would really like to do it myself, but at the same time I don't relish the thought of crushing my hand either. Any suggestions are appreciated.
