Anyone recommend a coil spring compressor?

Take it to someone or make sure you buy a tool that is strong enough. I rented strut compressors before and they could barely handle truck struts. They started bending and didn't grip the strut as well as they should. I got the job done, but woud never do it again unless is was on a small car. Whatever you do be safe!

I WILL NOT TOUCH THE STORE RENTAL COMPRESSORS OR CHEAP DIY TOOL OR EVEN WORSE HARBOR FRIEGHT. I PERSONALLY HAD ONE LET LOOSE AND BUST MY HAND UP AND KNOCK ME OUT COLD. I always use the wall mount haydralic system or the big hand crank pedistal mount. With those it only take minute to do your struts
