SOURCE: 2002 Envoy six cylinder, needs struts
you must use a spring compressor, its a safety thing, The strut unit can be removed w/out the compressor but once the unit is out (2 nuts on top, 1 large nut on bottom) the compressor must be used to allow you to remove the top center nut holding the strut into the top housing. Take special note of the spring position, it is exactly opposite for either side. I was able to rent the compressor tool for $54 at advanced auto supply and upon returning the tool got my entire deposit back
