Always verify your specific vehicle's strut and ball joint dimensions against the tool's application range (5–13mm) before use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: Do I need special equipment or power tools to use this kit?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: No. This is a manual ball joint and strut spreader tool kit — no power tools are required. The hydraulic removal tool uses a standard external hex 17mm driver, making it easy to operate with common hand tools available in most garages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: What is the claw separator made from, and will it hold up to heavy use?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The Style 2 claw separator is made from CR-V (Chrome Vanadium) stainless steel, which is well known for its high strength, durability, and resistance to corrosion. It is the same material used in many professional-grade hand tools, making it suitable for repeated use in demanding automotive repair tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: Is the parallel pressure surface feature important for safety?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Absolutely. The parallel pressure working surface ensures that force is applied evenly during strut spreading and bushing removal. This design prevents the tool from accidentally slipping or being ejected under pressure — a critical safety feature when working with compressed suspension components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e{\"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\", \"@type\": \"FAQPage\", \"mainEntity\": [{\"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"What vehicles is this shock absorber removal tool kit compatible with?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": {\"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"This kit is designed for universal fitment and works with a wide range of popular makes including VW, Audi, Skoda, Seat, Ford, BMW, MINI, Citroën, Renault, Peugeot, and many other European and domestic models.
