Professional Spring Compressor Kit will compress most styles of strut springs. This is a safe and efficient way to compress strut springs. This set is supplied with everything you need to get the job done like a pro. Each jaw has safety lips to eliminate slip and is designed to fit the pitch of the spring to ensure maximum surface contact between the jaws and the spring, thus eliminating the risk of the compressor slipping around the spring. The spindle is driven by a 21mm hex nut and is not designed to be used with a impact gun. Hand turn the nut with a wrench or hand ratchet.

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
Contents: 7 - Go Thru' deep sockets: 16/17/18/19/21/22/24mm
3 x 1/2"D Hex bits: 6mm/7mm/8mm,

To secure shocks and struts to their mounts, the retaining nut must be torqued to its proper specification using a torque wrench. An improper torque value may result in premature mount failure - or worse. Strut nut sockets allow for the use of an allen wrench to hold the damper shaft while utilizing your 1/2" drive torque wrench on the socket to achieve proper torque.

Many German suspensions hold the strut in a split housing that is clamped tightly around the strut tube with a pinch bolt. Efforts to spread the housing after removing the bolt using chisels or pry bars may result in component damage or personal injury. The Schwaben Spindle Housing Spreader tool safely expands the split knuckle tube wide enough to allow removal of the old strut insert, and installation of the new one. Insert the hardened tip of the spreader into the gap in the housing, and turn it 90 degrees using a ½-inch breaker bar or ratchet. This spreads the tube slightly, and allows the strut to be safely removed.
