Would anyone have a strut spring compressor that I could borrow to replace my strut bearings this weekend? I will be very careful, and if anything happens to it , I would replace it. thanks

try harbor freight! they got cheapies that will do the job! or some mainline autoparts store should carry them? or you can use 2 ratchet style motorcycle tie downs that should do the job! you just need enough pressure to take load off of the center nut!
thanks Duane

I learned that you can "rent" tools at auto zone. they give your money back when you take it back. And I want to live a good long life, so a strap is out of the question. thank though.
