Does anyone have a good recommendation for a shock spring compressor? It doesn't seem like there are any good ones on the commercial market that I can find.
 
I don't think the Andreani version will work with a Sachs shock since the collar which retains the spring is the same diameter as the spring.
 
I rig one up with 2 small ratchet straps, works well and is simple to set up. Not as ideal as having a real compressor but it gets the job done easily.
 
I bought one of these off of eBay and it works brilliantly! Since it uses nylon straps it doesn't mar the finish on the spring. I want to say it was about $50 shipped.
