Installing coilovers...

kannibul

What does one need to swap coilovers, tool-wise?

My primary concerns are:

1) If I remove the OEM front coilover, can I (easily) get the new one installed (ie, without having to compress them?)

2) With regards to the rear springs - how do those go in?

I've changed shocks before, and I changed the rear coilovers on my motorcycle, and I remember they weren't that easy to do, but, also weren't that bad.

That's on a 700lb bike - obviously the Z weighs more, so, I'm just wondering what kind of headache I'd be setting myself up for if I go in blind, and don't have all the needed tools, such as a spring squisher or something - lol...
