If you undo the sway bars and shocks, you can install the springs without a compressor. It helps to have a friend stand/push down on the axle when you are putting them in. If you kit comes with arms you will want a good ratchet starp to keep/put the axle in place to put the arms on. Not to tough of a job. Good luck.

Start soaking stuff in PB Blaster or your other favorite penatrating oil and it will make things much easier.

I did on one axle and one drive shaft, they have all been swapped out now. The axle shafts are now backups to my backups.
