Mercedes Spring Compressor To Hire - Sorted!

[Tepper]

I'm going to be lowering my 190e soon and I don't feel like taking any chances using normal spring compressors. I seem to remember someone on here had some for hire at some point. This is the sort of thing I'm on about:



And a lowered 190e for your troubles:


Anyway if anyone could point me in the right direction that would be great.

Cheers for that MrEmpire. Guilty as charged.

you can do the rear springs without a compressor by dropping the lower arms out, the front can be done with regular compressors although its tricky, i did it a few times before getting the compressor kit as above, very good bit of kit.

MrSpeedy will hopefully be sorting me out, I figure it makes sense to use the proper tool because not only is it safer but it makes the job a lot easier, especially as I'm doing all 4 springs.
