I believe the top bolt on the hub is a camber bolt. So you may find this needs turning as your steering may be off when you change them over.

Hope someone can confirm this tho...

if your fitting struts and springs then no, no compression tool will be needed if the springs are already on the struts, and they will be a straight swap
