There is no need for a spring compressor unless you are putting in taller springs than regular duty F250 springs. I did it easily by myself. I had to use my weight a couple times too move it around but I got it done fairly easily with one person. You've got to make sure the truck frame is jacked up high enough to start, though.

Mine doesn't touch at any place it shouldn't that I noticed. It seems like I heard it might with 4 wheel drives though, but I'm not sure.
I defiantly need to upgrade my rear springs now. I hauled a pallet of bananas yesterday and the front end was up sticking up in the air a bit. No sag in the front but quite a bit in the rear. I either need to get some helper springs or some f250 leafs

I have heard that some people end up having alignment shops wanting to charge them hundreds of dollars for alignments after installing the F250 springs. Did you have any trouble or massive cost with the alignment?
Thanks

It's a Canadian thing eh!
They charge hundreds of dollars because now the camber is way out of factory spec. To fix that you need to replace the camber bushings on the upper ball joint which cost parts and labor + the alignment. Not surprised since most shops average 80$ an hour.
