This is a great tool the only thing is it’s too big for small ATV springs and made more for car springs. That being said. It works fine.

Used these on two different sedans and they worked great. Good design, the hooks could be larger but I'm impressed how they held. I'm not particularly gentle with these either and they haven't rusted, cracked, or cross threaded a single time. Will probably buy again since I've lost mine, good value and easy to use.

No issues, obviously be careful and use patience. I’m sure they don’t work for all coils but worked for me, 03 Deville.

Safety was my main concern in purchasing this product. I've heard bad things about the D.Y.I Strut replacements but I had to try it. These spring compressors are super easy to use and they hold up to the tension placed on them making your strut replacement an ease. I highly recommend these for the Do it yourselfer and would buy them again if these ever get borrowed from me and end up in Uzbekistan.

These are excellent quality and very effective compressors. But they have no safeties. This is by design and was necessary for my older springs because the gaps between the turns were too narrow to get my lockable ones on.So these fit, and they worked. But they need to be used VERY carefully. I would only use with a shock INSIDE. This way, if you get a slip, the spring won't fly. Once everything was compressed... I did a very quick swap of the shock. In the whole process, I got two slips, one where the spring could have flown and caused damage. I knew the risk, and was careful. But this was the only tool that would fit in this particular spring.So in sum, this is a saftyless compressor. Only use it if you know what you are doing and take safety measures as compressors in general are very dangerous. Some call them "widow makers" for a reason. But this is unique for the thin hooks... which some springs require.

They are a bit resistant at first. Lots of grease helps.

Does not fit or hold properly on the coil and they slip 3 out of 4 times. I end up compressing my coils with straps and it was much easier.

They did work and that's all i needed them to do. They are for smaller springs. They didn't fit my Crown Victoria's springs so well but i got them to work. The quality is well okayish but I don't think they will last very long. Now that was okay for me because I just needed them for this one job. And I'll be able to use them again if ever needed to. But how many other times is up in the air.

It's great value for the money. Unfortunately I attempted to use it on a pair of struts for a 2000 Subaru Outback. I DON'T recommend for use on small imports. Had to rent from O'Reilly a pair with the single hook with locking bar.I'm going to guess that they are designed for larger vehicles or Front Struts.Reading another review, I guy stated he used only one hook at each end.Looked really sketchy

I used these to change a part on my 2001 Polaris sportsman. My coils are much smaller than a car, but hooked on safely and worked perfect.
