/diy/ - Do It Yourself

what is your goal here? why do you need to compress them?

i would make something pretty similar to your picture but instead i would use pic related to go around the spring so you know it aint coming off

weld one u bolt base to a big nut, and then the other u bolt base to a piece of sch 80 pipe that fits nicely over your ready rod. sandwhich the one without threads inbetween some nuts for the lower spring clamp, and the threaded one for the top. weld a nut and 1/2 inch drive socket to the bottom of the ready rod as a means of tightening. put a ratchet on it and it will pull the top u bolt towards the bottom unthreaded u bolt
