Lol yeah I almost found out the non-spring compressor thing the hard way. got the top nut off a few threads and then realized how much the spring was pushing against it... The amount of pressure released would be like a 12 gauge shotgun, with a big thick bit of steel as the ammunition (top hat)...
Note to self and others: search toymods before doing any home job modifications 
But yeah you'll find theres a rubber dust cover at the top of the shock, wrap some vice grips around that and clamp it, the rubber will help lessen the risk of damaging your shock and will also grip the bar alot better than metal vs metal.
Kev.
