If the frame is bare (no body, nor engine) then place a chain under a floor jack and hook each end of the chain to the frame. Jack it into position. Then connect the upper control arm to the frame and/or steering knuckle.

Need to be careful with this operation to watch it closely to make sure everything is going straight and not trying to slip off.
