Failed on first use.

The shoes work great and feel powerful, worked great on one damper, then the worm gear broke on the second damper. So now my truck is in the garage disassembled and I have to try to buy or rent a spare tool to finish the job tomorrow.

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • Communication with seller

Fits BMW e36 in Suspension Tool

Worked on BMW e36 struts with short stem and long spring which makes compression work very difficult. Ordinary $30 twin compressors didn't get the job done and were dangerous. One slipped and crushed his fingers. Bought this cup compressor. Success! He felt protected during the compression and decompression process. I could confidently experiment with different positions to find the best one.

Pros
  • Excellent Design
Cons
  • Damaged

May not work for large diameter shocks

Coil Compressor Kit looks well made but did not compress the Bilstein 6112 coils without rubbing the Bilstein shock causing upper strut alignment. The problem I had was that the large diameter 6112 shocks rubbed on the innermost part of the clamp, so the shock didn't stay centered enough to fit the cylinders. This problem occurred with both the medium and small clamps that come with the kit. This should work fine for a smaller shock/strut assembly.

Pros
  • Heavy Duty Finish
Cons
  • Repair
