its not really compressing anything its merely getting them out of the top of the spindle and the bottom ball joint...they are basically rusted into the Spindles...its a PITA....

looks great!

a grinder with a cutting blade and a pickle fork, cut the strut in half and beat it out of the ball joint with a BAH and fork. not like your gonna put it back on.
