Spring compressor tool issue

Automotive Chair person,

The spring compressor has an issue closing, while not under load.
It’s the “FactoryDirectSale.com” large red box. It has 3 sizes of spring cups that mount to the compression shaft assembly.
Located on the second shelf of automotive tools, it’s the largest of the cases for compressor.

This compressor will work for my small coil struts. The others will not fit my coils.
Please take a look at your earliest convenience.

do you still need a spring compressor?

Yes still need a compressor, but my Miata coil springs are very small, so the tool needs to be able to accommodate.

Universal compressors, like the auto parts rentals, have been too big to fit the coil springs.

I don’t see a delivery for the spring compressor, Thursday evening.

Will check again tomorrow.

Jay,

I’ll have a look at home shortly and see if I have my old spring compressor - it may work for tiny coils.

@JayJohnson600 and @TLAR, @Brandon_Green will be bringing the new one up to the space tonight. He’ll probably be up there by 8.

Put it on shelf

Probably off topic, but just to reiterate general DMS policy that applies to all tools, individual members may not remove any tool from the premises.
