8MILELAKE Heavy Duty Suspension Spring Compressor Tool - Strut Spring Compressor Remover and Installer for Coil Springs Review

I've used small tusk spring compressors and they may be fine on a quad, but they're practically useless on a UTV. The tusk clips were not compressed enough to be usable, they slipped and scratched the feathers. These clamps have a much larger area to clamp the spring harder. And fix firmly without moving. I spent 1.5 hours with tusks trying to figure out how it works. It took 15 minutes to meet.

I used this compressor on my Gen2 Klr650 to replace the springs on my rear shock with heavier ones. Most stores near me didn't have the tool for this, so I ordered my own. I did some research and found out that Tusk compressors are not designed for heavy use, so I had to look for a non-weak compressor. When using this to make a motorcycle spring, remove the tabs from the bolt for easier installation and removal. Overall quality is good but could be better.

Good spring compressors but head bearing washers not included. Also, the casting where the bolt head/bearing washer contacts the attachment "cam” is a raw casting, not a flat casting. It is highly recommended to sand the surface flat/smooth and perpendicular to the hole before use. I understand this is a cheap bottom fed product, but it actually takes less than a minute of machine time to mill a flat surface on a claw. Pull yourself together and get it right the first time!

Good spring compressors but no head bearing washers. Also, the casting where the bolt head/bearing washer contacts the mounting "cam" is a rough casting, not a flat casting.
