    The inside one will be the one to use.You just have to grab the coils as far out as you can from top to bottom.But dont go too far out or when you decompress the spring the tool hooks will get jambed in the control arm or upper spring pocket.Just compress the crap out of them without stripping the rod.The tool may need to be taken apart to remove it when you get the spring in.It may not come out of the lower control arm.I just did mine about 3 weeks ago.What a pain in a** it was doing it by yourself on the floor.I rebuilt the whole thing when it was apart.Its 69 Camaro clip on a 35 chevy sedan.

    Good luck and be safe with those.
