You need the spring compessor to rebuild struts, I dont recommend this for the typical do it yourselfer. You can remove the whole strut asemply then take it to a qualified shop for the rebuilding process. I've bought a Haynes manual for every car I've had for the last 20 years. It covers everything about your car and will tell you when something requires specialized tools or equipment and should be taken to pro. They're about $20 new and available at most autoparts stores, or you can check eBay or Yahoo and get em a little cheaper. Money well spent.
