When i stripped my subframe and all arms out earlier this year, it was sitting on axle stands with a fence post across the width of the car for extra support. in all probably about 12-14in of the ground. A trolley jack helped lower the frame once free.
Quite a straight forward task but made awkward in my case by well rusted bolts/nuts etc on upper arms. A tin of wd40 or the better US version (forgot the name) is essential to soak for a few days prior to loosening bolts. probably would be easier now i have an impact gun!! Good luck.
