If you want to install them with the isolators, you will need a spring compressor to install them

Not enough muscle haha. Did you losen the brake line and struts? It can be done with just a pry bar

jack the front way the hell up and support on jack stands, unbolt the brake calipers, struts, sway bar end links, and tie rod ends.
let the control arm down to basically straight up and down, line up the spring so the bottom pig tail will sit in the pocket correctly with the end between the 2 little holes in the bottom pocket, then use a friend to push the spring bottom with their foot into the pocket while you use a jack to raise the control arm up.
I suggest wearing a mouth guard and a cup. [ 2015-08-03, 12:27 PM: Message edited by: Blind ]

I bought the $15 lowering spring tool from maximum motorsports and it did the trick for me when installing eibach springs with isolators.
