Gm door spring compressor

The first time I used this spring compressor the bolt turned in its lock, so I was unable to loosen the bolt to remove it. The spring still compressed made for a dangerous situation to remove the spring. The clamp is made of a light weight metal that bent as it clamped which Boud up and caused the bolt to strip.Read full review...

Door spring Compressor

I put new door hinges on my daughters 1996 k1500 4x4 and this spring compressor made the job so easy it is unbelievable. It is in my tool box now and that drawer is marked so I can find it any time. Awesome product! Thank YouRead full review...

GM door spring tool.

A friend described it as a large salad tong with a bolt through the center with a nut on one side. You will need this to get your door spring removed to get your door pins out to rehang the door.
Quality steel heavy duty nut and bolt.
Easy to use. I would recommend using a ratcheting wrench with the nut. 12mm.
Is what mine needed.

Know Your Tools

Could not compress an 18 year old door spring enough to reinstall it! Bent and twisted while trying to compress spring! Had to fall back to using a vice and wire trick to finish job! PLEASE DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!Read full review...

complete garbage

I bought this for a 1998 Blazer door spring.
The first time I tried to use it bent, the spring didn`t compress at all.
The ends of the arms that hold the spring bent out and middle of the tool where the threaded part is bent in.Read full review...

Bent out of shape

Using as described, the door spring bent the tool out of shape. I finally resorted to using a bench top vice and zip ties to compress the spring to put it back into the door.
