🔧 Enhanced Performance with W80559 Strut Spring Compressor Review

Works well on tight springs. Used on my chord front springs with no clearance issues. Do not bend or wear, but be sure to lubricate the screw threads with anti-seize paste.

The product does not work very well. When attaching one side, there is not enough space to place the spring compressor on the other. Luckily I only got by with one. I bought a crappy pair from the Autozone and they worked a lot better.

Had to remove the coil spring from a '68 Mustang. I had a single rod that you inserted into the spring and the rod was too long and was against the spring rod.

Single-lip compressors (the more common type) should have the screw parallel to the spring. However, I rotated the spring compressor a bit (maybe 10 degrees) so both edges end up against the spring and the screw heads are 180 degrees apart and the bottoms are also 180 degrees apart. .
