This is what i made up for compressing the front springs.
A length of 15m/m allthread with piece of 10m/m id tube welded to one end, i wraped a piece of 3m/m flat over the tube and welded to the allthread just for a bit of added strength.

The round plate on the bottom is just a bit of 5m/m plate i had laying around.

put the spring in place, pass the tube end of the rod up through the lower control arm into the shock tower,use the top bolt of the shock absorber,pass it through the tube,wind the nut up on the bottom of the rod to the required position, bobs your uncle..
