Don ,
Easy to make. I used 1/2" threaded rod ( you could probably get away 
with 3/8" ) along with large fender washers or a large enough steel 
plate to cover the top & bottom shock mounting holes. You want the rod 
long enough  to hold the expanded spring. I use a threaded coupling and 
lock it in place on the top so I can use a ratchet and hold a wrench on 
the bottom nut. Since the front suspension is exposed it's easy to 
imagine and fabricate the tool. You also get a good view of the tool in 
the TRF catalog if I remember correctly.
