Take coil overs to a shop and have them assemble them. It's $50 well spent.

As for other tools, I'll cut and paste a list from Wes.

This was the list I used in my howto for the WesWay Lift

Suggested Tools to Install Front Strut Shims and Rear Coil Spring Isolators:
Floor Jack
Scissor Jack
Small Hydraulic Jack
Large Hydraulic Jack
2 Jack Stands
1 6" 2"x4" Blocks
2 8" 2"x4" Blocks
Tire Iron or Impact Wrench with 3/4" Socket
10mm Socket - 1/4" Drive
13mm Socket - 3/8" Drive
18mm Socket - 3/8" Drive
19mm Socket - 3/8" Drive
13/16" Socket - 1/2" Drive
5/16" Socket - 1/4" or Nut Driver
12" 3/8" Extension
1/2" to 3/8" Reducer
Small 1/4" Drive Ratchet
Large 1/2" Drive Ratchet
5/8" Combination Wrench
Medium Standard Screw Driver
Magnetic Trays or some form of a container
Universal Hammer
Locking Lug Nut Adapter (If required)

This list won't help you much with upgrading bumpstops but should get your front coils and struts out along with the rear coils...
