Calibration required? No. Torquing the nuts to the correct torque, yes. The torque for the end link bolts is 16-ft-llbs (22 N-M). Also I'd suggest using the special grease on them.

Just don't get under the car, without it being supported by jack stands. Don't trust a jack to hold it up, with you under it.

I'm far less trusting of floor jacks than I used to be, since almost all of them are made in China now and the quality control sucks. Always use jackstands.
