if you dont think 400 plus pounds of spring tension can do any damage you are sorely mistaken. of course it CAN be done this way. you could also remove the wheel and work on the suspension with no jack stands but is it safe? hardly.
try it once with the proper tools and you wouldnt even think to do it the other way
