You need to work with an inner spanner, that uses two "dishes" to span the spring. Its normally used for Mercedes cars and with that, it works very well, although also need sometimes towo or three attempts to get the "dishes" into the right position - you need to position them as far from each other as possible, to get them out easily.

just to be on the safe side, as I plan to overhaul my front suspension soon:
do you mean the sort of spring compressor shown below? Thank you
