Default Broken coil spring

Today every right turn I made, I heard a clanking noise, when I got home I looked at it and my passenger side coil spring was broke. I just bought new springs on rock auto.com Has anyone changed these before? I plan on doing it by jacking it up and un bolting them. I have a compacter to use, do I need any thing else?

you dont need to compress them. just unbolt and let the axle droop and they pull out..
