I changed the DIY back to torquing the rear suspension in the air because I crawled under the car today to check something out and I realized that it is virtually impossible to torque those suckers while it is on the ground. It is a good idea in theory, but in application not really gonna happen.

Also, I added torque specs to the DIY, that should make things easier for people. Added the torque spec sheets at the very end of the DIY as well... I am pretty tired and I think that I got everything right, but if someone wants to double-check for me that would be great.
