Nice spacersĀ
I think those spring compressors are for cars (?) and a few people (such as some coil spring compressor vendors on ebay) have claimed they are too big & therefore of limited use.
e.g. Ebay item # 201019989805 "If you have ever tried to use car spring compressors on a bike spring you will know how easy it is to do irrepareable damage to the shock unit with oversize compressors"
My own compressors are the same design as that fella & they worked well in conjunction with a half-decent vice & a 2 foot breaker bar to turn them
