Default S60 strut mount replacement

Hello,

Once again it is time to replace the strut mount(s) on my 2001 S60 T5. I am considering doing the work myself this time. I am unfamiliar with this procedure - do the struts need to be compressed? Can this work be done with the car sitting on the ground?

Thanks!

Default yes and yes

If you have never done it yourself I'd enlist a friend that has done it before to help you. It can be done on the ground, I actually prefer it that way, but a good Jack and stands are the must.
