How much did that thing cost?Those arent worth a on our cars. If I ever do springs again I am getting one like Kitz's. Ended up compressing mine, chaining it then shoving it in the car. Bad plan, but it worked. Quote Selected

Project Evolution *** Project Complete **** Wednesday July 9, 2014 Reply #1278 – May 13, 2009, 07:28:07 AM The only problem with this compressor is that you can only compress the spring enough to get it seated in the arm and get a little pressure under it to hold it in.If you compress it to much, you can't get the thing off the spring because it won't slip back through the coils. and you can't use it with the strut still connected either. There's not enough room for both because of it's size.So it did help me to the point of getting the spring seated, and keep it from popping back out. Quote Selected
