If I buy a shock with coilover set do I still need a spring compressor to take out the old and install the new one? or is that just needed for installing the springs and shocks separately

should be all good, the spring is usually captive with the strut so just have a good look, should be sweet

you need proper tools , the spring is compressed very tight.they are easy to remove out and in to the car.remove them and take it to a repair shop let them swap shocks and springs*** not safe if you don't know what you doingi have shop in NJ price is about $300 max for all
