Nice job. Same spring compressor that I used. Did it take you awhile to figure out you had to put it in upside down or it wouldnt work? Mine was a tight squeeze too, it took awhile to position correctly.

Those autozone loan a tool compressors are crap. I was using one and the threads stripped out on it and the spring went flying. I thought I was screwed into buying it but I managed to sneak the stripped threads past the clerk and got my money back at which time I went to sears and bought a set of two outside compressors.
