just rent the tool from out zone it's really not that hard, if you don't feel confident take it to a shop near bailys crossroads they'll assemble it for you and you can just install them at home.

This is the SPORT suspension. The guy I use has a spring compressor and has done many suspensions but says this will require a wall mount. Most shops I've been calling around aren't capable of doing it either.

OEM E90/92 sport struts/springs can't be compressed enough to reassemble with regular handheld spring compressors, and many shops can't do it even with a wall-mounted spring compressor.. It's frustrating!
