For the guys who have used both, I'm looking for feedback on ease of use and durability of the More Performance spring compressor and the Crane spring compressor tools.

I understand that the Crane allows one to do 2 springs at a time compared to the More Perf tool, but it appears that the More Perf tool would be faster due to the rocker fulcrum design and rachet/breaker leverage handle (versus threaded stud)?

EXPERIENCED comments on preference are appreciated.

 

Crane is awesome, I'll never try another one again.

I use my crane tool with an air ratchet and it's super fast and VERY easy.

 

i have the crane tool. excellent piece. very nice being able to do a cylinder at once, and it worked excellent on my dual manley springs

 

I've had both, and the Crane tool wins hands down. The More piece is made of aluminum and it begins to bend where you insert the socket wrench. Plus you have to hold compression with one hand and drop in the locks with the other, not the easiest thing to do. I personally thought it was crap. As for the Crane, you just tighten, and go to work, doing two at a time cuts the job in half. I've done 4 spring swaps with the crane and no complaints.

 

`yeah i really like my crane, and like mentioned doing two at a time while still having your hands not being tied up to do only one is the toping on the cake

 

Great responses to the Crane piece...I'm convinced. Thanks for the input.

 

Just to add one more, I have both tools and I'll never use the More tool again (unless I somehow break the Crane tool lol). The More tool has already shown wear after one set of springs, and can shift if you slightly loose your grip. Forget the rear springs on a truck also. The Crane tool can handle all of the springs, compress them evenly, and saves on nicks and cuts.
