^^ Passenger side is were the bolt is located. Once Im draining, I lower the jack as far as it can go w/o crushing the plastic oil pan. At that point, the car is practically leveled with the ground (Im not lowered). And I dont use more the jack for this job since only my left arm is under the car at the time (Not my head or torso). You can reach fine with the correct length wrench 
And of course I have the car in gear and handbrake fully engaged and on perfectly leveled hard surface

I was researching a new jack a while back and found a site that measured the heights of those jacks. Neither of those jacks will reach the S2K front jack point without something being put under the front wheels. Mine is even worse now with an OEM front lip and a one or so inch drop.

Not true the Omega 29023 2-Ton jack works with space to clear. I have one, but my car is at stock height and I don't have a lip.

Nice! If I worked on my car all the time, I'd buy an Omega jack too!
