I am putting my 951 Springs in my car tomorrow and I was wondering if I am going to need a spring compressor to do this or not.
Thanks,
Chad

Yes you will. Autozone rents them cheap and also sells them.
You will also need an offset box wrench (23mm? IIRC) for the top strut nut and a long 7mm allen wrench if the struts are the stock ones.

While an impact wrench may make every job easier, I have never had a problem with the offset wrench and allen wrench. Here is what the offset wrench looks like:
Sears has them:

If he has the impact set up already, that's great. If not, the above is a perfectly fine alternative that I have used many times.
