adding a comment for the algorithm overlords, thanks Jimmy
Love your videos keep them comming
Thanks very much William!
That is a pretty cool design. I have the old school OEM I believe. Two bars, an "ear" on the ends of both bars. You tighten one from the top, one from the bottom, little bit at a time to evenly compress. Knock on wood, never had an issue
Yeah, I have one of those set ups also. works ok, but wanted some options.
Thanks!
@@JimmyMakingitwork Yeah I hear ya. That one looks dare I say, "safer" than the old version I have. I always like to see newer versions of tools. Good stuff Jimmy!
Nice demo👍
Thanks for the visit, appreciate you Matt!
Thanks, great test.
Glad you liked it!
I really like how that tool works seems like its really solid looks like its really made to fit to the spring may have to pick that one up after Christmas time!
Yeah Patrick, I was surprised how well it worked, not even considering it wasn't very expensive.
Thanks for watching!
@@JimmyMakingitwork yeah I agree not a bad price at all! And thank you! I never miss your videos!
Tools are always good. I have a craftsman made in USA spring tool. They got damaged the first and only time I have needed them, (I did use an impact on them). I always thought I could warranty them out wawawa Sears is out of business. This set looks good for when I need to compress springs again. Thanks
Thanks Carlos!
They didn't get damaged. You broke it
I'm wanting to change the front springs in my 89 Mustang and wondered if this spring compressor can handle 600 inch pound spring or not. I'm going to install Ford Motorsport M 5300 C springs and the spring dimensions 5/8" coil wire size x 5" diameter x 12 3/4" length. I thank you on answering this matter.
I don't think it would be a problem. The tool is very capable. It is important to make sure and use the correct diameter cup and to ensure the coil is caught in the lip of the cup during compression. I also always keep the tool pointed away from my face just in case, usually on the floor...but haven't had one problem though.
@@JimmyMakingitwork Thank you for the reply and have a good day.
I have a set like that. Haven’t got to use it yet. I wonder how it would work on the Chevy Express vans. They have some hellacious front springs that need to be removed to do lower control arms and such. I’ve always used the internal spring compressors that the shop manual calls for but it’s still scary.
Yeah, compressing springs is always a little sketchy. I try and stay in a place where it will get caught by a bracket or something while I work if possible.
But I also normally use the internal compressor to remove some tension, then lower the inside bushing end of the arm.
I’ll try this tool when I get another one.
Thanks!
I was thinking of doing work on my 2012 civic but I need too many things done to tackle myself (rear struts, brakes, timing belt, trans fluid change). Does your shop give you a cut of business you bring in or are you allowed to do work on the side? I live in tampa and thinking it might be worth it to come to you to have an honest knowledgeable mechanic do the work. Do you have an email?
Thanks Kyle!
I don't have much time for side work lately, but we could do it at the shop. Sounds like a full days work though, so it would be best to drop it off if possible.
My email is: jimmymakingitwork@yahoo.com
It doesn´t look safe for me when you work without heavy duty gloves and safety goggles.
Are you a mechanic?
I rarely wear gloves and have been a professional mechanic for over 42 years. I do wear shatter proof polycarbonate lenses though in my glasses. IF something was to go wrong with this tool the result would most likely be broken fingers, wrist, teeth or other fracture.
Thanks for watching and leaving a comment.
