 good value June 18, 2010
Robert C. Buchman (Granby, CT USA)
Since I lost parts to my old one and needed to a job fairly quickly, this fit the bill. Not the greatest but, for the price, a very good value. The keepers are a nice feature and save the safety step of wiring the pieces together. This is what I call an O.I.L. tool (once in a longtime) and therefore it's not really necessary to invest a lot of money. I'm not a professional mechanic but work on my fleet quite often.
 Works great! June 13, 2010

These spring compressors worked great. Note that I did use an impact wrench. I imagine it would be a bit tedious doing this by hand.
Still no replacement for a professional wall mounted or hydraulic unit, but for anyone that wants to save some money by doing it themselves, I highly recommend these.
This is made in Thailand or somewhere over there, but they are really sturdy and are great for the weekend mechanic.

My 1990 Subaru is kind of low, what i mean... theres a shorty spring cased at the top of the wheel well....so to avoid screw the compressor into the body, I set a 3" spacer (between nut and lower spring holder and pin piece), that i rigged with some hardware store provisions...it cost me time and $3.
Is it too much to ask OEM, to make the spacer, as a part of final product?
...though works great, looks nice and blah blah blah

Used these on my old Hyundai Elantra, first time I've done a strut change. They worked great and seemed sturdy. They didn't slip or walk around the spring.
