OK Brian. Just trying to save you a few bucks. If that type doesn't work on your SLK (have you tried?),then I guess you'll have to spend the big bucks for the custom tool. But from my experience, that type of compressor has never not worked, but.. I haven't yanked SLK springs either. Worked great on the 300E, 240D and 300SD. BTW, after you buy it, can I borrow it ??? ...
