Installing SFCs in driveway?

Have any of you installed weld-in subframe connectors in your driveway before? I know that the suspension has to be loaded. Can I accomplish this with a set of ramps and jack stands? Does it need to be completely level? Where should I place the jack stands? Under the axle tubes in the rear as close to the wheels as possible? Any help will be appreciated. I have searched for a while and all I've found is people paying to get them installed at a shop with a drive up lift or people buying bolt-in sfcs and then getting them welded. I would just rather install them and weld them myself at home.

I did mine in the driveway with 4 rhino ramps if that helps. If you dont have access to those just make sure your car is level and that the suspension is loaded.

Agreed^ 4 ramps or 4 jack stands on a even pavement will work out for you. People have different ways of doing it but as long as the car is leveled out you should be good.
