Jim, the coil spring compressor I have used is for my 69 Mustang, you remove the shock & the spring compressor fits inside the spring. It has 2 sleeves on the threaded rod with 2 curved pieces attached to the sleeves that go over the coil on top & under the coil on the bottom. Then you tighten the threaded rod pulling the  sleeve on the bottom up compressing the spring. Here is a link to one similar to the one I have.
