Default Powerstep install'16 'rado body mount bolts

Hello
Is it necessary to lift truck by frame rails to install a step kit which requires removal of body mount bolts?

The kit uses the body mount bolts (amp reasearch powerstep). I have a jack and stands but was wondering if it's necessary to lift the truck to do this. Not sure if there is additional pressure on those when the truck is sitting on its suspension.

thanks
BM
