Description

Coil Spring Compressor Kit for Wishbone Suspension

Brief Overview

This is a purpose-built coil spring compressor designed specifically for vehicles with restricted wishbone access—particularly those with apertures under 30mm. The kit handles the unique geometry of compact suspension bays found on VW Touran, Citroen C3, Skoda Octavia, Peugeot 107, and a broad range of European and Asian vehicles. If your shop also services standard spring installations, consider pairing this with a heavy-duty coil spring compressor system for comprehensive suspension coverage.

Key Features

  • Four Split Coil Spring Cups – Black plastic construction with center U-shaped notches, engineered to grip spring coils in confined spaces
  • Dual Metal Rods – One long threaded compressor rod with hex drive end; one tapered adapter piece for varied applications
  • Organized Carrying Case – Rigid blue plastic case with molded component recesses, dual latches, and integrated carry handle for job-site portability
  • Vehicle-Specific Design – Optimized for restricted access points common in modern compact and midsize vehicle platforms
  • Complete Kit – No additional purchases required for wishbone spring removal and installation

Business Advantages for Resellers

Market Positioning: This is a specialist tool that opens up a profitable niche—suspension work on popular European compact vehicles (VW, Citroen, Skoda) and common Asian platforms (Toyota, Honda, Hyundai, KIA). Many general shops lack this specific capability, creating opportunities for differentiation.

Turnover Driver: Wishbone and lower control arm service is routine maintenance on aging fleet vehicles. A dedicated kit reduces labor time and eliminates risky improvisation, increasing shop efficiency and customer satisfaction.

Professional Presentation: The supplied carrying case presents a polished, organized image to customers—reinforcing credibility and justifying service margins.

Bulk Order Value: Stock this alongside broader suspension tools. Shops upgrading their suspension bay naturally bundle spring compressors.

Why This Compressor Matters

Wishbone access points on modern compact vehicles demand precision. Standard spring compressors often cannot fit or grip safely in these confined geometries. This kit eliminates workarounds and unsafe practices, protecting both technician and vehicle. The split-cup design distributes compressive force evenly across the spring, reducing the risk of coil damage or uneven loading.

For shops servicing European fleets or targeting younger vehicle owners with suspension maintenance needs, this tool justifies its place in every suspension bay.
