I am getting ready to replace the front and rear bushings on the trailing arms of my W110 (fintail). I need a spring compressor that works on the outside, because there's no way to get the tool into the inside of the spring. I looked at the Lisle unit, but it's for struts, not plain springs.

I found this one from Eastwood:

It's made of 3 5/8" rods. Any opinions?
