what did you need the coil spring compressor for?

I mentioned in my previous post that I replaced the struts too. One side was leaking, my car had 205,000 miles on it at the time.
You wouldn't need the compressor to replace just the ball joints. I dropped the strut assembly out as a unit and disassembled on the ground. You could do the same thing and remove the spindle from it, then replace the ball joint. Just remove the nut for the ball joint from the bottom of the control arm and pry down a little with a bar on the control arm, I had plenty of room.

I have replaced sway bar and end link , ball joint and control arm , everything broke at 215.000 km.
Now I have a very better car , but I need to change the 4 shock absorber and top mount too ....
Regretting :
can some one tell me are the treads left or right handed? I can't get the counter nut loose much less the tie rods off. the other thing is I can't get the driver control arm back on do I have to have the spring compress ? before I do the other side should I compress the spring?
thanks everyone for their help
