I have one that I used on my SS. Absolutely no complaints and worth every penny.

It could not have worked better. Does 2 springs at a time with ease. Reaching those back springs was no problem.

I have used it and loved it! Used it on Patriot Gold Duals and PRC Duals.

Just got mine a week ago from Crane, can't wait to use it. Very well made tool, like everyone says worth every penny.
