VEVOR Hydraulic Strut Spring Compressor - 4.5 Ton/9920 LBS Jack Capacity, 1 Ton Rated Compression Force, Auto Coil Tool for Removing

What took thirty minutes with a pair of outside soring compressors now takes Five. This is by far the easiest spring compressor for automotive struts that I have used in the last forty or so years. Vevor has done a magnificent job of sizing, and selecting the proper weight of the Steel materials used in the Strut Press. The Base Plate works as intended. I have had no issues with the Vevor Strut Press whatsoever. I used an old axle bolt to hold the second set of hands to the machine Pictured. (If you haven't used a Strut Press, keep the Press between you & the Strut at all times. Secure the supplied safety chain to the Strut Spring before compressing to prevent a spring flyaway should it dislodge accidentally). Definitely a Five Star Product in my book.

I don't usually get excited about tools, but this hydraulic spring compressor absolutely blew me away. It shipped almost immediately after I ordered it and arrived way earlier than expected, which couldn't have been better timing. I was able to replace a noisy strut mount the night before an important road trip instead of worrying about it the whole drive. I've fought with those cheap threaded compressors that clamp to the sides, and on my Chevy Sonic's oddly shaped springs they were frustrating, slow, and honestly felt sketchy. This Vevor hydraulic compressor was a completely different experience. I set the strut in, gave it about 7 or 8 pumps, and the spring compressed perfectly. I had the strut mount swapped in about 10 minutes. No fighting it, no worrying about the clamps slipping, and no wasted time. As a DIY parking lot mechanic, I wish I'd bought this years ago. It turned one of the jobs I dreaded most into one of the easiest. If you're on the fence, stop wasting time with the screw-type compressors. This thing is worth every penny.

Be aware! This spring compressor failed the first time i used it. The main support bent in the middle deeming it unusable. I’ve reached out to seller and Amazon three times now without a single response back. Very unprofessional. 100% would recommend looking elsewhere

AC delco small struts cannot be compressed with the cheap "widow makers" because the top hat and the bottom plate of the struts get in the way of long screw bolt. Those are also really unsafe. This one worked well and the chain provided an extra degree of safety. Vevor compression tool works for large SUVs as well because it comes with larger coil plates. Highly recommend it.

Very easy to set up. Product was a little unbalanced. Cheap and looks like it a reasonable product

It worked on a Toyota Highlander for the 3 corners; LEFT FRONT, LEFT REAR and RIGHT REAR struts. As for the FRONT RIGHT it was another story, the upper part of the strut coil does not fit the clamp, maybe because of how the coil spring is wound?. I tried it in several positions, even upside down which is not the proper way, still the coil seems a little bit larger than the clamp, (I used the big clamp). it kicks the upper part outwards. On the plus side it was easy to change the shocks and bit safer than the screw type, which I ended up using on the FRONT RIGHT STRUT (borrowed from auto zone). I wanted to return this but the paint was easily scratched on the first use, it is not powder coated. I don't know what the solution is for the RIGHT side, maybe a bigger clamp?. 3 stars for the 3 sides.

This item works well does not fit all springs. It does fit the rears springs on a 2007 Lexus RX 350 it did not fit the front springs on the same vehicle. We had to pull out Old faithful my Eastwood that holds three size spring compressors. I still haven’t figured out what the chain was for and there’s really nothing in the instructions. I guess this is normal.

Great tool for getting strut springs off and on the strut. I used o sienna mini-van- tips: Make sure to tip off jack hydraulic fluid- mine came almost empty. If you dont do that you won’t get the length you need to do the job. Also after you do one side the other side strut assembly might need to be adjust a quarter turn like a mirror. My experience was I got the driver side done, then the left side was attempted. With the jack out of fluid it wouldn’t fully compress the spring. A quick top off and it worked without having to return. Great must have tool for this job.

Für einen einmaligen Austausch der Stoßdämpfer hat es hervorragend funktioniert. Es wirkt sehr stabil und qualitativ gut verarbeitet. Außerdem ist der Preis für die Arbeit, die es leistet, wirklich fair. Ich bin zufrieden, zumindest für dieses eine Mal hat es seine Aufgabe geschafft. Wie es sich in Zukunft bewähren wird, kann ich noch nicht sagen, aber momentan kann ich sagen, dass das Werkzeug sehr gut verarbeitet ist.

This little thing is sweet. A lot smaller then what I was expecting but with the included chain feels even more secure then the wall mounted ones you would typically find in a shop. Very simple concept that works well. Also really easy on the wallet

I am only just getting into mechanicing in my mid 50s. There are only two things that scare me, springs under compression and grinders. This has cured me of one of my fears. I was able to remove, replace and refit my top strut bearing in around 15 minutes each side. This made the actual bearing swapping a sub one minute task and felt as safe as anything. I love this tool and would even volunteer to do other peoples springs now I have this. Summary: VERY easy to use, makes the job fast and easy, and remove the pucker factor.

Super outil. Facilite grandement la compression du ressort afin de remplacer l'amortisseur. Utilisé sur bmw 130i . L'outil est bien fabriqué, solide, il y a même 4 joints de rechange en cas de fuite de verrin. Franchement je recommande à 100% et vu le prix foncer sans réfléchir.

Parfait ,fonctionne super bien
