spring compressors 700 1985

posted by  someone claiming to be Tim Smith on  Sat Sep 1 13:13 CST 2001 [RELATED]

So I have the wagon all packed up and ready to take me to school tomorrow, and the thing sits like it's about to fly me there rather than drive. I can still see the tops of both rear wheels, but there's only an inch or two of space visible when viewed dead-on from the side. So now I'm realizing that if I'm going to make this 3 hour trip multiple times each year with all my junk, (for at least three more years including this one), it's time to get overload springs. When I get around to doing the job in a few months time, I'm going to need a pair of spring compressors, right? So my question is where should I get them? Anybody have good/bad experiences with these things? Good place to buy/rent? I'd like an idea of cost, too, if you happen to know. I did check the archives for info, but I couldn't find much about the tools themselves.

Thanks for putting in the time to respond.

Tim
