You will need a new set of coil springs, a coil spring puller, a screwdriver, a pair of pliers, and a measuring tape. Once you have all of your tools and materials, you can begin the process of replacing the coil springs.

Remove the old coil springs. Use the coil spring puller to remove the old coil springs from the sofa frame. Be careful not to damage the sofa frame or the new coil springs.
Measure the old coil springs. Use the measuring tape to measure the length and diameter of the old coil springs. This will help you to determine the size of the new coil springs that you need.
