Don't you have to jack up the car to remove the endlinks anyway?

i would just support the rear with a jack so it will give you some leverage

just the endlinks come off then put on the new and make sure only to tighten them till they slightly budge. don't over tighten

are you doing front or rear?

with the front I had to use my 6in c-clamp to help push the bar down and it is also a lot easier when the wheels are off
