Before removing them, make sure that both the body and the rear end are supported in the air since the LCAs hold the rear-end in the car. You dont want to support just the body or just the rear beacuse one or the other could move and pose a dangerous situation.
Here is the write-up from Install University:

I installed SLP SFCs and Spohn LCAs at the same time.
Here is the write-up I followed for the SFCs:

That is basically how I had my car supported when I installed the SFCs and LCAs.
Since my driveway is at an angle, i didnt have to jack up the front to have the car be level during the install.
EDIT:
Also, Do one LCA at a time to minimize the chance of the rear moving around!
