Default Any DFW guys have a "on-head" spring installation tool?

Going to be putting a set of dual springs on my car this weekend and don't really want to drop $80 for the tool for a one time use. Would be willing to pick up and put a full deposit down on the tool. Please let me know if anyone has anything, I am in N. Arlington.

Thanks!

I have a single not a double that i made out of some 3/16 steel plate and a nut and bolt. Worked like a charm.

Looks like I might have found someone local who is going to loan me the tool. I appreciate the tip rickykline, any other tips?
