Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

You need to have the suspension level whether in the air or on the ground so that the sway bar is not being twisted as it would be if only one side were jacked up. Cheers, Paul

You don't *have* to, but it's easier. Another way to do it would be jack up the one corner you're working on, then once you have the wheel off, put a jack stand/block of wood under the hub and lower the car down until the sway bar is flat.
