Anybody have any recommendations on a good coil spring compressor? The one I had prior was too short and I am about to swap out my eibachs for some cut h&r's.

TIA
 
the only good ones I know are wall mount & really expensive, like $5-600 or so. all of the little hobbiest ones I've seen kinda suck, but I guess could do the job too. what about having a local shop just do the spring swap if you just bring them the struts out of the car? they might swap the springs on 2 struts for like $50-$60 or so, some places would anyway I think, might be the best way to DIY without dealing with the spring compressor part of it...
 
How wide do they need to be able to open to work on the fx springs? My previous compressor couldn't open wide enough, so now it is sitting in my brothers shed.
 
well the full size pro wallmounts will handle it no problem , but I guess they are kinda wide, that might be an issue with the one you showed, the second type I showed should go wide enough I think...
