Jacking and jack stands?

So, I have been struggling with this for awhile now.

What is everyone's method of jacking the 124's and 210's up in the driveway so you can work on them? What is the best way?

I have been using the jack the cars come with and then placing the jack stand underneath but that is a lot of work and I am always afraid that the original jack with crank won't hold the car once I have the one side already on the jack stand. This has always been a reason to get a two post lift but I don't have an area to install one.

I have also used a floor jack but cannot install a jack since there is no frame per se on the Mercedes....its a real dilemma for me! Ha Ha!

I bought ramps this weekend but they do not fit under both wheels to raise the car due to the trim.

This probably a really dumb question but is the only way a two post lift with the Mercedes?
