Of course you will need a spring compressor to do the strut mount. But it is usually the spring boot that fails, and this should be replaced with a boot designed for an XC90 (same size, but much better materials).
I bought a McPherson strut spring compressor from Sears for $54 a year ago. That saved me about $300 in labor charges.
