Review on Heavy Duty 280mm Spring Compressor by 8Milelake by Chef Deane

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best spring compressors!

I used some rental compressors from an auto parts store. Now I have the only set I will ever need. They fit Honda Civic springs AND F-150 springs and don't stick or twist or make you feel like they're about to pop out and change your face at any moment. The clever design allows you to install a socket wrench or impact gun without having to remove the entire assembly. I used this to swap out the front coils on my Japanese kei van (talk about no clearance between coil and post) and both coils were swapped out in under 20 minutes, and then I did the same thing with my 99 4runner. Seriously, I can't believe they exist!

Pros
  • Features an adjustable guard to prevent accidental spring release under load.
Cons
  • update availability.
