When dismantling a suspension strut sometimes the securing nut can be difficult to access and the central strut itself needs to be held still while the nut is undone. This new Shock Absorber Tool Kit is designed to overcome these problems and make the job quick and easy.

The go-through design of the sockets and ratchet design allows the strut lock extensions to go right through the middle of the ratchet and socket. Five different strut lock extensions are included, to fit a variety of applications. Seven go-through deep sockets (16, 17, 18, 19, 21, 22 and 24mm) are included, plus a sliding T-bar.

Once the spring is compressed and the top plate is free, simply choose the correct strut lock extension and socket. Then fit the socket and the ratchet handle, and fit the strut lock straight through. The central strut is held steady, and the securing nut is quickly removed.

Specifically designed for repairing and replacing shock absorbers and struts

Looking for an alternative to your jack stands?

These work best when used with a floor jack under the subframe and the opposite axle wheels chocked. These are also a light weight and inexpensive alternative to the super-pricey plastic and metal ramps. They are resistant to most fluids and chemicals (but not solvents) and will never rust unlike metal ramps and blocks.

Also available in a 10" height.
