Evening all,

Im after a new set of spring compressors after my hydraulic set gave up the ghost.
As the job I need them for requires the spring to be compressed quite a lot, I dont think another set of floor standing hydraulic ones would allow enough compression.
I have come across the below type on ebay and was wondering if anyone had any expirience of using a similar set?

Many thanks!

Thanks, will probably give them a try.

Used to be easier in the old days on shocks without rebound damping, spring didn't need to be compressed that much.

Now on the newer stuff, I'm finding that the shock "piston" is pulled back in by the rebound damping, meaning the springs need to be pretty much coilbound.
