NR Bolt Kit Install Question

Finally getting around to installing this. Do I need to jack up Jeep or can I just do on ground? Trackbars I know I can do but what about LCA? Do they need weight off to replace but not tighten and full weight to torque
TIA

No, do it on the ground. One bolt at a time though. I installed the same kit and there were a couple holes where I needed a little leverage (someone pushing the axle or used a pry bar).

Slowly lifting the pinion with a floor jack will rotate the axle to help in lining up the holes. Like said before do one bolt at a time. Be sure you have a torque wrench.
