T-0158 Clutch Drum Spring Compressor Transmission Tool Heavy Duty Steel Bench Mount

Worked like a charm! Have several different auto transmissions to use it on. Ford 5R55E first, next C6 and AOD-E. Glad I bought it.

Works great.

For the price, it works. Could it be better, ABSOLUTELY. Better tools cost A LOT more for a reason. For the guy like me who only needs to use it a few times in its life, I couldn't be happier.Pros: Price. It does what it says it will do. Arrived quickly and as described.Cons: Materials and welds are questionable. The top mounting nut was welded a little crooked, making one arm press down slightly more than the other. You could drill new holes offset in the arms, but all that's a pain. I used it as is and kept my face and anything else as far away as possible when everything was under tension. It seemed solid but... things get scary when lots of springs are compressed, esp with my fingers right next to it all.Overall, I don't regret buying it.

ok

Broke at joint on first use. Took it to a welding shop to be welded. Looks like they used JB Weld or a very cheap thin wire to weld it together. Anyway, it broke but after it was repaired, it works great. Just be ready to take it to a welding shop.

Worked great on my escape transmission

This thing. Yenya helped out a lot, large baskets can be squeezed if the base is made along the length
