Cool home made jig, but it needs a base plate to secure the bottom of the strut. I'd much rather use the HF compressor than that as it sits. Seems like it would work well with stock spring rates though if you modded it for safety. It was certainly fast.

Honestly, modifying the length of the extension would handle stiffer spring rates. I know there was nothing to secure the bottom but it appears fairly stable. I'd rock it!

Fast and efficient. As far as the base, yes, could be more stable, but honestly no different than any other home method I've seen people talk about.
