Do you have a set of ramps you can back your car up on?

AFA grease, any good quality marine grease is fine. Look at your local hardware or boat store.
You only have to have the suspension loaded (jack under pumpkin or on ramps) when tightening the bolts. So you can have it on the stands, install the bar but not torque down the bolts, raise the pumpkin several inches to load the suspension, then torque down the bolts. Mission accomplished.
