Installing Comptech Header

Im planning on installing my comptech header tomorrow. I dont have a lift, and was planning on just jacking up the car and trying it out. Has anyone done it this way?
Im just nervous that the car will fall on me

If anyone has done it this way can you give me some pointers on how to properly jack and support the car?

Should i be lifting the front AND back? or just the front?

After lifting the front, do i just let the car rest on the stands? is there any particular place i should put the jackstands?

i know it can be a pain in the ass to get those bolts off that connect the header to cat. IM afraid im gonna be pulling on the socket wrench real hard and the car might slip or fall. should i be worried?

Use extra jack stands?

leave the jack under the car for extra support?

read and restart the thread if you have anything else you need to know. Eventhough you might not be doing the cat, I highly suggest you remove the Header/Cat for ease of installation.

You always use jack stand if the car is in the air and you are under it. Place the jack stands under the jack points per the manual.
