There is a older Thread of another member doing the same thing and making a spring compressor for the front. But this compressor only for the front of a 123 pulls the front Spring up into the spring Perch.
I made mine from 1inch x 14 threads pre inch threaded rod and several nuts, washers for spacers, apiece of flat spring steel slightly over 1/4 inch thick, and a 1 inch pipe flange. I also had to buy a 1 1/2 inch Flare Nut Crow Foot to turn the nut from under the Hood as there is no room for a regular wrench.
I had to cut a piece of the pipe Flange off for it to fit the top of the Spring Perch under the Hood.
The bottom plate has an elongated hole so that the plate will tilt.
Material cost was around $22 from an industrial surplus store; otherwise it would have cost around $10 more.
