yes I did but im not sure if the car was completely level..Does it have to be completely level for accurate readings?..I had the car all the way off the ground about 2 feet but not sure if it was level.

I have 4 race ramps I drive up on but this is basically what I do. Works well and you don't have to try jacking the rearend.

You will want to tighten down the front a-arms with the suspension under load also. I have seen customers tighten the a-arms down with the suspension at full droop and then have issues either with bushing failure or ride height being high or incorrect in the front.
