VEVOR Hydraulic Strut Spring Compressor - 4.5 Ton/9920 LBS Jack Capacity, 1 Ton Rated Compression Force, Auto Coil Tool for Removing

What took thirty minutes with a pair of outside soring compressors now takes Five. This is by far the easiest spring compressor for automotive struts that I have used in the last forty or so years. Vevor has done a magnificent job of sizing, and selecting the proper weight of the Steel materials used in the Strut Press. The Base Plate works as intended. I have had no issues with the Vevor Strut Press whatsoever. I used an old axle bolt to hold the second set of hands to the machine Pictured. (If you haven't used a Strut Press, keep the Press between you & the Strut at all times. Secure the supplied safety chain to the Strut Spring before compressing to prevent a spring flyaway should it dislodge accidentally). Definitely a Five Star Product in my book.

This tool is awesome. Used for Toyota Tundra Struts on offroad TRD. These are strong struts, removed the coils with ease. Highly Recommend this tool to make life easy!

Worked very well once I figured out the correct spring placement within the compressor. The two arms for lifting and lowering the jack are very flimsy so gentle use of these two components are needed, I bent the longer bar for lifting the jack when I used my foot, so I ended up using my hands, which worked fine and did not have any issues. My second strut only took about 5 minutes to swap the springs.

This compressor is utterly useless . Right out of the box it was assembled and the pump cylinder was not compressing . When the trucks coil was installed into the mounts the pump would decompress and you would have to continuously pump the handle to compress the spring. After repeated attempts the oil in the cylinder shot out of the adjustment screw and no longer worked. Ended up traveling to auto parts store and renting a compression tool. Complete waste of money and throwing it into the dumpster. It’s not like you can wait around for a replacement when the vehicle is in the air and front suspension is disassembled. Very frustrating to stop everything and go out and get a tool that works .

I don't usually get excited about tools, but this hydraulic spring compressor absolutely blew me away. It shipped almost immediately after I ordered it and arrived way earlier than expected, which couldn't have been better timing. I was able to replace a noisy strut mount the night before an important road trip instead of worrying about it the whole drive. I've fought with those cheap threaded compressors that clamp to the sides, and on my Chevy Sonic's oddly shaped springs they were frustrating, slow, and honestly felt sketchy. This Vevor hydraulic compressor was a completely different experience. I set the strut in, gave it about 7 or 8 pumps, and the spring compressed perfectly. I had the strut mount swapped in about 10 minutes. No fighting it, no worrying about the clamps slipping, and no wasted time. As a DIY parking lot mechanic, I wish I'd bought this years ago. It turned one of the jobs I dreaded most into one of the easiest. If you're on the fence, stop wasting time with the screw-type compressors. This thing is worth every penny.

Value engineer at its finest. Works well. I was able to do 4 shocks in less than an hour. Hardware is pre galled garbage. The jack/hydraulic ram is also garbage but worked. I wish the metal was thicker but I didn't notice any flex doing Subaru shocks.

Works great. Well made and best price anywhere. You ABSOLUTELY NEED to make a wide base to use this stand. I have attached a pic. The stand is heavy duty, but the weight of a shock would tip it over and especially when trying to loosen the cap nut on a coilover, it would tip over. Having a base would also allow you to stand safely behind the press while working.

It worked on a Toyota Highlander for the 3 corners; LEFT FRONT, LEFT REAR and RIGHT REAR struts. As for the FRONT RIGHT it was another story, the upper part of the strut coil does not fit the clamp, maybe because of how the coil spring is wound?. I tried it in several positions, even upside down which is not the proper way, still the coil seems a little bit larger than the clamp, (I used the big clamp). it kicks the upper part outwards. On the plus side it was easy to change the shocks and bit safer than the screw type, which I ended up using on the FRONT RIGHT STRUT (borrowed from auto zone). I wanted to return this but the paint was easily scratched on the first use, it is not powder coated. I don't know what the solution is for the RIGHT side, maybe a bigger clamp?. 3 stars for the 3 sides.

Very Easy To Set up, Very Easy And Efficient To Use,Highly Recommended,THANKS.

Für einen einmaligen Austausch der Stoßdämpfer hat es hervorragend funktioniert. Es wirkt sehr stabil und qualitativ gut verarbeitet. Außerdem ist der Preis für die Arbeit, die es leistet, wirklich fair. Ich bin zufrieden, zumindest für dieses eine Mal hat es seine Aufgabe geschafft. Wie es sich in Zukunft bewähren wird, kann ich noch nicht sagen, aber momentan kann ich sagen, dass das Werkzeug sehr gut verarbeitet ist.

This little thing is sweet. A lot smaller then what I was expecting but with the included chain feels even more secure then the wall mounted ones you would typically find in a shop. Very simple concept that works well. Also really easy on the wallet

I am only just getting into mechanicing in my mid 50s. There are only two things that scare me, springs under compression and grinders. This has cured me of one of my fears. I was able to remove, replace and refit my top strut bearing in around 15 minutes each side. This made the actual bearing swapping a sub one minute task and felt as safe as anything. I love this tool and would even volunteer to do other peoples springs now I have this. Summary: VERY easy to use, makes the job fast and easy, and remove the pucker factor.
