Compressor for Struts 200

posted by  someone claiming to be Skip on  Wed Feb 23 07:17 CST 2005 [RELATED]

I played around with the threaded rod type "widowmakers' for years before I spotted the Snap-On model at my mechanic. It's basically a big "V" with a single threaded rod that pulls the arms together. It's pricey (over $200) but is worth its weight in gold. We have a half dozen Volvos in the family so it gets plenty of use.
