    Easier maybe, but I really don't like the fact that the truck ends up not properly supported using that technique.

    At least with the tool, you can point the spring/tool in a safe direction.

    that technique does not work when setting preload for aftermarket coilovers.

    Not sure if you're still looking but I brought my truck to my buddy's shop. Pretty biased since he's my friend and he lets me use his shop for everything I need but definitely worth checking out. The wall mounted spring compressor came in clutch when installing the top hats onto my 6112's.
