  • It works, but could be designed to be better.
Size: Brake Spring Compressor
This tool did allow me to install the overly strong shoe retaining springs that came in a hardware kit. I was unable to do it with my usual needle nose pliers. At 78 I just couldn't apply the pressure needed. This tool gave me the extra push that I needed. That said, the tool could really be improved by making some minor modifications as noted by others. ... show more
