DIY 3rd gen alignment questions

Hey Guys,
I've read through the past threads but still have one or two basic questions.

1. Are the centric nuts on both sides of the lower control arm independent of each other. So they each adjust without loosening the other side?

2. When making adjustments, I'm assuming the front end is loaded with jack stands under the lower control arms?
What about the rear of the vehicle ? Lifted level?.

Everything feels good on my truck but the camber is way off on both sides.
Wore the inner tread on both tires to a nub.
I'm a DIY guy and fear even dropping it off at a shop only to have to get under there and fix it myself.

Thanks,
Kenny S>

theres a few random right ups. my buddy said he had to go to 3 differnt places to get his right.

i hear ya about bein a diy guy. i brought mine to a shop for the first time and all they did was strip out my tie rod adjusting bolts.. and i was lookin at the cam bolts and there was grease all over them and no wrench marks.. meaning theydidnt touch them.
