Default Install OME springs and shocks

Greetings, I am putting new shocks and springs on my 1996 Disco SE. Is there anything special I need to do the Job(tools). I assume I need a sping compressor to remove and install Coils. Went with the Heavy Duty springs If you wanted to know. Hoping to get a couple of inches lift.

Thanks in advance
Bill

I heard there's enough travel on the Disco axles you can put the springsin without a spring compressor? Just whatI was told so don't know 1st hand.

Bill, first you need to decide what springs to install, there are, I think 4 to pick from.
Send me your tele number and a good time for me to call you and I would be glad to help you.
As for tools, a floor jack and 2 jack stands.

nothing special is needed for the installation. if you cant get the spring out or dont have a spring compressor, disconnect the sway bars and put the bottle jack between the axle and frame. just watch the brake lines.
