A Cheap Tool to Remove/Install Hood Springs, anybody can make one in 10 min's Options

[76-914]

The last time I removed/installed hood springs was 2009. I used vice grips and brute strength. I don't have the strength anymore and after learning of someone who lost an eye doing it that way I decided to make this. You could use square tube where I used round or flat bar where I used angle. I flattened the end of the round tube some and wrap a shop towel around that end so as to preserve the paint of the wheel well. It folds up for easy storage. I used a 1/4" shoulder bolt to tie the 2 pieces together.
