I changed rear springs on the SDL last night. Took 2.5 hours. I have the Klann clone which works just fine.

The need for a "Klann" is overrated, IMHO. It's no effort, whatsover, for a 15 mm thread to put 2000 lb. of force onto the coils. You do need a compressor of similar design to reach up between the coils. The room in the rear is pretty tight.

I'm going to rent this one out at a very attractive cost in a few weeks. It works very well with virtually no risk for anyone with any aptitude whatsoever.
