But you do need the special socket to hold the shock in position when you release the springs. Just read through the entire DIY before you start because it has been modified through experience. It's a lot easier than it sounds like in the beginning.
I always rent spring compressors when doing this sort of thing. It's much safer. Autozone gives you the deposit back as long as you don't break anything.
