Default how to swap out front coil springs

In the not to distant future, I will need to swap the sagged suspension out of my black DD for the lifted parts from my white one.

I checked Go-Jeeps website, and he shows a method that is not the same as the FSM, which advises drop the entire front axle housing down.

Checked Youtube, there is a guy Bleepin Jeep, shows external coil compressors and pry bars, I do not wish to attempt this method, as I consider it too dangerous (especially the way he does it)

Do I need to go the full FSM method, or is there another safe way to get the springs out, considering I will be putting back in +3" taller springs, and new longer bump stops
