Works fantastic on classic car

This worked fantastic on a 1972 El Camino. The standard side mount versions didn't work. Due to the nature of the car, you couldn't extend the screw upwards to the mount as its a solid mount. So I took a pipe around 4 inches long and put on the compressor so the screw didn't extend past a certain point. I'd seen others online cut off a couple inches of the screw but I disliked that permanent of a modification. The pipe option worked great. Able to compress the spring and install it much faster and easier than I was doing.

Quality

Haven't used it yet. It came in a very well packaged box, has a nice carrying case, it looks same as the much higher priced coil spring compressers. I would definitely recommend buying from this company.

Highly recommend

The media could not be loaded. I really like this product, as long as you change the washers and oil it often you should be able to get a lot of use from it. These tools are under a lot of pressure a tension so no matter how good you stay on top of the up keep they wear out, it’s just how it is. Make sure you know which type you need for your make and model there are a couple different types for the different types of suspension. This product is dependable but it’s still dangerous. Make sure you follow manufacturers guide, it might be easy to use but at first it’s a lil tricky getting a hang of it. Even if your not going to use it much for the price it’s still worth it, cant beat that price

Does its job, well

Works as a spring compressor should.

Works on my 2006 Ford Ranger

I removed the shock absorber which is the middle of the coil then shimmed the spring compressor through the bottom opening and up through the center of the coil. Got the top clamp as high on the spring as possible and the bottom clamps as low as possible. My 21 mm deep socket on my hammer drill spun it tight enough for me to complete the removal.For re-inserting the spring, I went out and purchased a3/4 Grade 8 Nut and large washer. I will compress the spring, get the top of the rod through the top shock mounting hole, pop the washer and nut on. This should keep the spring in place while I bring the lower control arm up and into place. Then I would be able to remove the spring compressor and install the shock absorber.Today, successfully completed the installation of the front coil springs Thanks to this tool. Not the tools fault that is was a beat of a job. Had to compress those very stiff springs a lot in order to get them back on the truck.

Made an impossible job possible but not easy

I used this to install front springs in a 1973 Chevelle, which is similar to other 1973-1977 GM intermediate cars. On these vehicles the spring can’t normally be installed without removing the control arm from the frame. Having just installed a set of very tight control arm bushings that had to be forced into the frame with a sledge I wasn’t about to try and redo that with a spring too.So, I used this tool to compress the spring just enough to get it inserted between the frame and lower control arm, and used a floor jack with chain to compress the rest of it and install the spring.Others have suggested just using the bottom half of the tool and inserting it from the top down the shock mount hole but on this vehicle the shock mount hole is too small to accommodate the threaded rod, so it has to go in through the bottom.So yes, it worked. Reason I only give 3 stars is because the overall design of the tool is not great, it’s difficult to get the tool positioned properly to compress the spring without curving the spring - the hooks want to rotate when tightening the rod. On one side the bottom hook got jammed between the control arm and the spring and I had to disassemble the tool inside the spring and remove the ball joint nut to get the tool out. That might have been operator error. I also had to add some spacers as pictured to keep them rod from extending too far out the top, hitting the shock mount on the frame. There was visible wear on the bolts that attach the hooks to the tool after installing two springs.This tool is fine for this price and got be out of a bind, but it’s not a pro grade tool. If you are going to do a lot of front end work, there are better but much more expensive designs on the market.

Coil spring compressor

What I like about this spring compressor is that it’s super easy to use. I had to modify something on the bottom like a metal plate with a hole big enough to put the rod through it. I was working on a 60 impala

Imported but worked well

I wouldn't expect this tool to work great on every vehicle so I'll be specific.I used this tool on a 2003 Ford F150 2WD. For this vehicle, it worked very well.You'll have to take your time and get it positioned correctly which can be slightly frustrating with the limited space to work with inside of the coil spring. I found that it was easier to completely remove the main center drive screw and then position the hooks exactly where you want them and then replace the screw and tighten it all the way down. I also found that it helps to have the upper and lower hooks 90 degrees from each other works better than lining them up with each other. There's not enough room to drive the screw from the top so I did it from the bottom through the lower control arm and the end of the screw made its way through the shock mounting hole up top. I didn't take photos so I hope this makes sense.It also helps to use a jack to lift the lower control arm as much as possible to compress the coil spring to reduce the amount of compression that the tool has to do. Make sure to use jack stands of course. I've been using Torin Big Red 12 ton jack stands (T41202) that I also purchased from Amazon. Safety first!
