Car have to be on jacks to remove panhard bar or can i use ramps?? i need to take the panhard bar off to get to my gas tank, will i be able to take the panhard bar off if i use ramps? or will there be to much pressure on it from the suspension being compressed, so ill need to put the car on jack stands?

I replaced my LCAs and PHR on ramps.
Here is a post I made about how I installed my SFC, LCA, and PHR in one afternoon:

Personally, I'd do jack stands and support the rearend by the "pumpkin" with a jack. The shocks, springs and LCA's SHOULD keep everything in place, but why risk it?

You can swap out the PHB on the ground. I've done it several times this way. The body may shift out of alignment, so be careful when removing the PHB bolts. You might need a second set of hands to push the body back to line up the bolt holes, but I was able to use a pry bar quite easily to re-align it.
