Sportlines....Spring Compressor?

After a quick search, I didn't find anything. But just a simple question.....

Im gonna be installing sportlines here in a couple weeks... Will i need a spring compressor to accomplish this? Thanks.

I don't think you need I go to a shop for that. Just buy a set of spring compressors. Cuz you gonna need them for other stuff. Btw I had a hard time removing the rear springs so I jus used a lift up tool. Don't remener the name but u use it to lift the plastic tabs. I inserted under the the plastic end on the bottom and lift. Made it easy for me.
