Description

Designed to quickly and easily expand Macpherson struts to their full extension and hold them in their extended position whilst new road springs are fitted. Particularly useful when working with struts that are equipped with strong internal springs (tension stop springs) that pulls the strut shaft partly into the strut. The tension stop spring fitted in some shock absorbers (strut) ensures that the strut cannot be damaged when “topping out” in use. The spring is located directly inside the shock absorber and is not active when the vehicle is sitting still with load on the wheels. It only comes into effect as the strut reaches full extension during the rebound stroke. The use of a tension stop spring has no effect on the normal operation of the strut, however, there is a significant disadvantage during the dismantling and assembly of the strut as the piston rod will retract into the strut as the load of the spring is removed. This makes fitting a new spring difficult as the strut will not stay at full extension. Fits most shock absorbers on e.g. BMW, MB, Toyota, Nissan, Fiat, Peugeot, Ford etc.
