I had to remove the A arm from the front right strut. I need some help figuring out how to compress the coil spring. I already removed the front strut to replace the ball joint. Currently I have it strapped to hold the spring in place. Is there a tool that will compress the spring with the shock still in place

 

when i replaced my strut on my 00. i just set it on the ground and pushed down. it was a pain. but i didnt want to buy a tool. yes you can buy a tool. there out there.
