OEMTOOLS 25550 MacPherson 10.75 Inch Strut Spring Compressor: The Right Tool for a Tough Job

MacPherson strut spring replacement is time-intensive job, and it can be dangerous if you don’t understand the risks. That's why it's so important that you have the right tools for the job. The OEMTOOLS MacPherson Strut Spring Compressor helps you safely compress and remove strut springs during MacPherson strut replacements, an important and routine part of maintaining many cars' suspension system that should be performed every 50,000 to 80,000 miles. This set of two strut spring compressors works in tandem to put equal forcing pressure on each side of your MacPherson strut spring so it won’t bend or deform during your strut replacement. These tools are everything you need to safely handle strut springs.

Fits Most MacPherson Strut Springs

9.75 inch max opening makes these tools compatible with most MacPherson strut springs on both large and small vehicles.

Strut Spring Compressor Tool

Rugged safety latches make broad contact with the strut spring, and keep the tool safely locked to the spring during removal & re-installation of the MacPherson strut.

Safest Way to Replace MacPherson Struts

These two compressors work in tandem to put equal forcing pressure on each side of your MacPherson strut spring so it won’t bend or deform during your strut replacement. Remember to take every precaution when handling strut springs. Use a heavy duty tool such as ours. Apply equal pressure to both sides of your spring. And do not jostle the strut spring when it’s being held by the strut spring compressor tool.

Heavy Duty Design

Heavy steel body, forged hooks, and hardened center screw hold up against the immense energy of compressed strut springs. These are great tools for mechanics, because they hold up through repeated MacPherson strut replacements.

221 customers mention195 positive26 negative

Customers like the quality of the tools. They mention it's very well made, heavy duty, and has great hardware. The pins are strong enough, and the bolt is sufficiently strong enough that it'd be unlikely for them to pop out. The spring grooves were deep and rigid enough for their job, and they provide a greater sense of security than only using two.

14 customers mention9 positive5 negative

27 customers mention4 positive23 negative

Customers are dissatisfied with the fit of the springs. They mention that the pins are too small to fit over all springs, making it difficult to fit the hooks between the rungs of the splines.

This was my first experience dealing with coil over strut suspension and I was surprised with how easy is was
4 Stars
This was my first experience dealing with coil over strut suspension and I was surprised with how easy is was
Exactly as advertised. I purchased these to replace shocks on a 2006 Hyundai Sonata and they worked perfectly. This was my first experience dealing with coil over strut suspension and I was surprised with how easy is was, in part because of this tool. I would advise spending the few extra bucks and buy this in the blow molded case, the plastic that it ships in when you opt for no case is a pain and on top of it, you don't have a case! I would recommend putting an anti seize on the threads before you use these, at the very least a good quality grease. Also, don't use an impact on them, for your own saftey. Don't be lazy, just use a ratchet. Yes it takes longer but it's safer and its easier to get even pressure on both sides. Take your time, be safe, and this tool will work great for your next suspension job!
