I removed the shock absorber which is the middle of the coil then shimmed the spring compressor through the bottom opening and up through the center of the coil. Got the top clamp as high on the spring as possible and the bottom clamps as low as possible. My 21 mm deep socket on my hammer drill spun it tight enough for me to complete the removal.For re-inserting the spring, I went out and purchased a3/4 Grade 8 Nut and large washer. I will compress the spring, get the top of the rod through the top shock mounting hole, pop the washer and nut on. This should keep the spring in place while I bring the lower control arm up and into place. Then I would be able to remove the spring compressor and install the shock absorber.Today, successfully completed the installation of the front coil springs Thanks to this tool. Not the tools fault that is was a beat of a job. Had to compress those very stiff springs a lot in order to get them back on the truck.

I wouldn't expect this tool to work great on every vehicle so I'll be specific.I used this tool on a 2003 Ford F150 2WD. For this vehicle, it worked very well.You'll have to take your time and get it positioned correctly which can be slightly frustrating with the limited space to work with inside of the coil spring. I found that it was easier to completely remove the main center drive screw and then position the hooks exactly where you want them and then replace the screw and tighten it all the way down. I also found that it helps to have the upper and lower hooks 90 degrees from each other works better than lining them up with each other. There's not enough room to drive the screw from the top so I did it from the bottom through the lower control arm and the end of the screw made its way through the shock mounting hole up top. I didn't take photos so I hope this makes sense.It also helps to use a jack to lift the lower control arm as much as possible to compress the coil spring to reduce the amount of compression that the tool has to do. Make sure to use jack stands of course. I've been using Torin Big Red 12 ton jack stands (T41202) that I also purchased from Amazon. Safety first!

Seems well made. I did have to add a length of 3//4 pipe between the drive nut and the first spring clamp so that the screw end would not hit the lower A arm while tightening. worked great.

What I like about this spring compressor is that it’s super easy to use. I had to modify something on the bottom like a metal plate with a hole big enough to put the rod through it. I was working on a 60 impala

The build quality of this tool is good. However, the arms on each end are too close to the same length, so the tool tends to move off of centerline of the spring, which causes the spring to compress on one side only, making installation/removal of the spring a little difficult. The tool does work, but you need to be patient and make sure it’s engaging the coil properly before and during compression. Even still, the tool can slip off of the spring. So be safe, wear eye protection and keep your fingers out of any pinch points, and it should work.

it is dangerous working on the coil spring, but the design of the tool makes it better. The center bolt was too long for my needs, so simply cutting a few inches off the end did the job.

Good price, good quality, easy to use and works great. Not meant to be used with an impact, otherwise it slips. Seems like it will last me a lifetime, but time will tell.
