Would not recommend
Does not grip spring evenly, so compression always happens at a slant, making alignment almost impossible. Tried many combinations of the hooks/coils to try to maintain a straight compression, impossible. Choose something better and external.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend
Works perfectly, highly recommend
I bought this tool to help replace a broken front coil spring on my classic. It worked perfectly, saved a ton of time. This tool is for vehicles with separate coils and shocks, NOT struts.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
Internal coil spring
Would not work on my application. To large to come out of the bottom of the lower A-arm. Bolt to long when spring compressed. Would work on larger full size truck springs in my opinion. My application for this tool was a 79-93 Mustang.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend
turns what was a day job into a 2 hour job
used this on my S10 to hold the coil on the frame and compress it a bit to replace lower control arms.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
