I'm not putting a lot of force on anything with the jack. Just taking out all the slop in the maximum camber direction before tightening the bolts. If you tighten the bolts with the suspension hanging all the slop in the system goes the other way.

A better way would be to mount the wheels & tires and settle the car to ride height before tightening any suspension bolts. You could do it with blocks under the tires, but seems a lot of work.
