Does anyone have a Branick 7400 Spring/Strut compressor?

[G U E C O]

I'm looking to upgrade my Branick mst-480 to a 7400 model. I've had my mst-480 for over 10 years and I cant do newer struts on my current machine. I am looking for an upgrade, but I want some feedback from first hand users. Also, if you know any deals please let me know. Thanks in advance

I have used my freinds the one thing I dont like is some times its hard to get on the strut nut. Thats when you have to drag out the flex sockets and extentions but it works great with fast set up and will do any thing we have needed to do with ease.

I've used one. The strut nut is difficult to get out. You need to use a flex socket or flex extension. Other than that it's great.

do your self a favor and get a OTC strut master. ive used every type of spring compressors from clam shell types, 2 piece cheapo rods clamps, branicks, and finally landed on a OTC strut master.

anyone whos looking for a professional strut compressor get a strut master!

springs will never fly out of the tool like how some will fly out of the branicks ( toyota springs)

I have one and i never had any springs fly out. I think some models wouldn't do rav4's or something.
