We use unloading tools but I know lots of people who have done it with a gear puller. Don't use a c clamp there's way to much tension on it when you put the aftermarket keys in.

Don't use the aftermarket keys unless you enjoy not having any suspension downtravel and replacing ball joints on a regular basis. They don't accomplish anything a torsion twist on the stock keys can't.
