Re: Clutch spring compressor

In addition to their convenience, I think the tools that compress the spring only save a lot of wear on the centre nut. Any of these I've seen are made of such a soft material you could almost call them sacrificial, presumably to save wear on the clutch centre thread. When using the "official" tool the spring forces the soft & hard materials together resulting in wear on brand new parts.
