This tool should work with any set of springs.

I have one and I've used it 2X. This thing is AWESOME for taking ANY spring off. Duals, singles, it doesn't matter. It was easier to put single springs back on vs. double, but I may not have had it perfectly aligned. It makes the back 4 cylinders on an F-body a breeze! Well worth $25. The only upgrade I would advise getting is a better nut. When using this tool to remove double springs, it seemed that the nut was a little soft so a trip to home depot solved the problem. Otherwise an awesome tool!

Ramair346,

Thanks for bringing the nut problem to my attention. The nuts supplied were grade 5. I will supply grade 8 the next go around. Even with grade 8 the threads will need lubricant for longevity.

I'm almost tempted to grab another one because this thing works so well. It's great to see someone finally sack up and bring a high quality reasonably priced tool to this platform.

Just ordered mine! It should make swapping the G5X-2 in my bro's 00 WS6 a cinch. Will provide feedback after using it.

I got mine today, it's kick ***!

My only suggestion is to round of the the corners at the back of it. It'd make it cooler looking

We sure want your tool to look "cool". Send that baby back with a $50 bill and I'll round it off for you! LOL!

Glad you got it Levi. Let me know if you have any problems.

Looks like I got to the party late. When will you have more of these ready? I'll take one if you can get it to me in three weeks or less.
