UPDATE 2/26/19: More available and ready to ship if anyone missed the first run.
Well that took a lot longer than I expected... but the High Strength Torsion Tools are finally complete. I tested them on a car in the shop and there's NO WAY these are going to bend, and the 'comfort handle' makes it super comfortable to use. They're $35 each + $5 shipping in the ConUS. You can PayPal HERE. Make SURE there is a valid shipping address on your payment, please... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smiley_notworthy.gif) Checks can go to the shop, the address is HERE.

Could these be used to pull front trunk springs on ?

I pull on and off the front springs with a pair of leather work gloves. Keep it simple. I don't have the muscles for that (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) forgive my ignorance, but what are these torsion tools for? |

Rear trunk I have a cheap $10 hand winch fixed to the back of my workshop to pull non running cars indoors. That can also work to stretch the spring over the hook on the front trunk but you have to be careful since now you are putting more pieces under tension so wear safety glasses. If you prop the hood all the way open, doing it by hand isn't that hard. |
