$35/set!?!?!?! That's a GIFT! Yeah, that's the right tool for the job!

The "big car" springs I'm reasonably OK with chain-and-hook compressors,
compressed just enough to get in and out of there car there's no threat of
them popping out sideways (they still scare sh*t out of me).

But the tall skinny american springs, look like ballpoint pen springs if
ball point pen springs could SNAP YOUR JAW OFF, there is NO WAY I would do
those again without the side cage.

Gotta check overall length for the early american (vs 64-up) but that tool
is a damn bargain.
