Yeah, going under a vehicle on a jack is a major no-no.

Even the best floor jacks have nothing more then a rubber piston o-ring holding the fluid pressure.

To get the most old oil out, drive the front wheels on ramps, pull plug, wait 1/2 hr, pour 1 qt new oil in (1/2 in filter housing, 1/2 in oil fill), let sit overnight. The new oil "pushes" the old oil out.
