i changed the struts out yesterday, this was actually a piece of cake, tools i would great recommend: impact gun & spring compressor, other than those two normal hand tools will get the rest done, i had this all done in about 5 hours, but thats because i just worked 12 hours and it was about 90 degrees lol without the impact gun this would be such a pain, i got an electric one from harbor freight for like 40 bucks, totally worth the money let me tell you, i got the spring compressors from them as well for like 15 bucks.......and they worked great......through turns body roll was greatly reduced, bumps are absorbed really well, and normal street driving is much more smooth, oem struts were still on my car(93,000 miles) and only one of them would compress back up and it only went 1/3 of the way back up and that took it 2 hours to go that far so needless to say they were shot.......
