[TR] Replacing top ball joint & top A Arm bushings

I'm about to replace the upper ball joint and the upper arm bushings on my
TR3A. Reading the manual, I didn't see any mention of compressing the coil
spring. Is the manual assuming that you have already removed the coil spring
at this point, or is it not necessary to remove the coil spring? 
 
I want to know if I should order a spring compressor along with the bushings
and top ball joint. 
 
Thanks,
Curt Fisher
