Do you mean pulling the rear end apart or taking the whole thing out of the car? Either way no, the axles have to be pulled out far enough the get the center section out. so the rear wheels can't be on the ground.

With the stands under the frame, you still need a jack of some kind to support the rear end when you take the trailing arms off. A good floor jack is a good investment.


Make sure you have good solid stands and jack. You will be working hard under there to get it apart and could possible knock it off or collapse cheap stands.
