you're throwing $200 away then. just go to auto zone and barrow one of their spring compressors.
1) remove struts from car
2) put spring compressor on spring to keep spring de-energized.
3) remove nut that keeps top of strut and bearing plate assembled.
4) remove spring from strut and undo spring compressor
5) compress lowering spring and place on strut
6) attach bearing plate to top of strut with spring compressed on strut
7) remove spring compressor from spring
8) reinstall strut
9) send me $100
