After 215K miles I'm replacing my control arms. I've read that I need to tighten the frame bolts to spec when the car is on the ground. I'm wondering how important it is to have the car physically on the ground. Can I just put a jack under the wheel and simulate the position of the wheel when the car is resting? Or will this cause premature failure of the control arm?

Thanks is advance for the suggestions.
