Coil spring compressor

The bolt type coil spring compressor may work on the REAR springs, if you want to go that route.
Do NOT use this type of compressor on the front coil springs.
There is MUCh more "spring"in the front springs. The proper tool ,that is specified in the workshop manual, costs around
$900. It can be rented from many sources however.
I cannot overstate the danger in doing this job with the wrong tool. We all work hard for our money, but to place your life in danger to save a few bucks is false economy.
