I use mine all the time..... Works fine.
The more you use it, the easier it gets.
I've used it to swap roller springs with 240lbs seat pressure.
Depending on how much room you have around the master cylinder, and how well you can get around the hood hinges will determine if you need an assistant for the rear cylinders. It's easy to use if you have good access to everything.

Is this VS compressor usable for people not cycling steroids? There is no lock mechanism. Use a cheater bar if you feel the need. I prefer the price of the home made version.

Anyone got a pic of the in-car LSM tool that works with the stock style Mopar heads/rocker gear?
Never mind...... I went to their site and checked it out. Looks pretty heavy duty.

I'll guess i will try that, what stops the valve from following the retainer?
Ah...so many pedestrians, so little time...
