April 2017 Review: Tools & Equipment

I've already used compressors to take apart 3 frame assemblies at a junkyard (to restore original OEM software like rubber and bushings) and I've built 4 spacers which are mounted on the tabletop. These are well designed tools and a safe replacement for an industrial compressor. However, if you have access to an industrial compressor, it would be wise to use it on medium sized car springs. "You'll know because the first few turns will feel like you're loosening a rusty nut instead of the smooth

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Not bad

Flirt With Danger Good for Tools and Equipment

Pros
  • Free for Educational Purposes
Cons
  • Safety

There isn't much room in the suspension area on my Mazda Miata and I was only able to use one of these spring compressors. I ended up…

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Could have opted for a newer model
