I tightend down the spring compressor down as much as I could, but didnt compress jack.

To put it back in, I just put the spring into the hole, put the lower spring into the notch, then jacked the control arm up from the ball joint.
Threw the spindle and new strut back in, and tada!
I have other problems now....
cool, glad that worked out for ya...i usually don't even use the compressor. most people don't realize how far the arms open and how tall the seats are.
