Review: Actually worth the money. - I was very skeptical to spend nearly $300 for this tool. However, I didn't want to get hurt or damage anything with the cheap Chinese crap available for less. This tool works exactly as advertised. I had no problem compressing the front coil spring on a Crown Vic. Quick and easy. Follow the instructions to the letter and it is very safe.
Review: Don't take chances with cheap junk. Buy this tool. - I've been wrenching for 30 years and buying tools for just as long. I've done suspension lifts, coil spring replacements, MacPherson strut rebuilds, coil-over installs, bushing swaps, if it holds the vehicle up, I've fixed or replaced it. This spring compressor is hands down one of the best tools I've ever bought. If you work on cars, you've heard of OTC. They've been making quality tools in America for 100 years. Don't waste your time with those sketchy, cheap external compressors that feel like a grenade waiting to go off in your hand. This compressor is SOLID. The entire thing is made of heavy cast American steel. The wide threads and included thrust bearing, in combination with the unique way the compressor is assembled, make installing and removing the compressor extremely smooth and easy, not like the crunchy, grindy game of chance you get with other inferior compressors. Multiple plate sizes and the generous screw length means it fits many different lengths and widths of springs. Don't be turned off by the price, the ease of use and simply just the peace of mind that this thing isn't going to explode and take your fingers with it are well worth the price.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's an expensive tool; but, the peace of mind was worth it!!
*by J***N on April 8, 2016*

I have to admit, I had a hard time parting with the cost of this tool. That said, once it arrived and I actually saw the design and strength of the tool, I realized there would probably be no better alternative on the market. Considering the pressure the spring is under when compressed, I now could not imagine using any lesser tool. This is not the kind of job to trust to cheap Harbor Freight tools from China! In the end, we replaced all 4 coils on 2 cars and it worked fantastically. It's fairly easy to maneuver the coil into place and I felt comfortable handling the springs when outside the vehicle doing the compression and while unloading the tension. It does take some arm strength to turn the center nut when the coil is significantly compressed. But, it was quite manageable. There's a good reason this tool is specified by part number in the Ford service manuals I have for my car. I can definitely see where dealers would recommend nothing less for the safety of their mechanics. In the end, you'll have a quality tool you'll likely use again and still do the job for less than the dealer. I wish I'd had this years ago when fixing up past cars and a truck I had.
