A local shop swapped the spring on the strut, thus they did that. I tried tightening it that way (as I was able to do the front like that), but the rear strut doesn't have the nut exposed enough to get a wrench on it. You have to use a socket, and thus can't get an Allen wrench on it at the same time.
