I wouldn't try to make a living with a cheap spring compressor but I bought one and it worked fine. I plan on changing the springs off the gas 126 and replacing them with the springs off the diesel car after the paint is finished on my project car. The gas body (v8) front end rides higher than it should with a 5 cyl diesel engine mounted in the engine bay.

When that change is made I'll retire that cheap piece of junk.
