ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE The present invention relates to a tool for compressing a helical spring of the type typically used in a MacPherson strut suspension system. The tool comprises a pair of spaced apart shoes each having a helical groove formed therein for engaging a portion of the coil of the spring. Each shoe also includes a latchable locking device extendable over the respective helical groove for maintaining the coil of the spring within the groove during the compression operation. The two shoes are maintained in a spaced apart relationship with the associated grooves in facing relation to one another by means of a threaded shank member. The threaded shank member is employed to effect movement of the spaced apart shoes toward and away from one another during the operation of the tool.
