Question Want to go lower... good spring compressor?

Hey guys, I'm just wondering if anyone has a recommendation for a good-fitting spring compressor.

I bought new shocks and springs from a member on here and I want them on NOW! The tool you can rent at Advance Auto is just way too big. I used it before when replacing my shocks a couple years ago, but they're so big (too long) it's just a serious PITA. Does anyone know of a brand/model that is smaller and actually fits "imports" better? Or a place that rents a better fitting set? Thanks in advance!
