Thanks for the advice all. Got it done this weekend. Only real problem I ran into was that the spring compressor I had compressed from the center of the spring, so I had no way of compressing the new spring back on since I obviously couldn't get the strut inside the spring. Solved that issue with trip to lowes and a handful of hose clamps. All is good now, except that at low speeds (parking lot speeds) something creaks over small bumps? I don't know if that is the springs settling or what. is that normal? Note that on the front springs I did not take that little rubber piece that wraps along the bottom ~1.5 coils of the oem springs and wrap them on the bottom of the swift springs. They were basically rotted. Also, I believe this is unrelated since I didn't touch anything brake related, but when I brake at 20+ mph with medium pedal pressure I get a high pitched squeal most of the time. When I barely brake or brake hard it doesn't make the noise. Sometimes even with the pressure that usually makes it squeal, it wont. Kind of puzzled since pads have some life left?
