Webco sping tester

 Seen at the VFT sale trade buy site, this Webco valve spring tension tester, complete with instructions. I'll probably never have to measure a valve spring for length and tension but it would make a great addition to any shop. 

And now I'm trying to design/adapt a variation of this-using a torque wrench- to measure fork and shock springs.

You could make your project a lot simpler with a spring scale hooked to a rod or length of cable going through the spring...
Just saying ;-)

I've had the use of one in the past when building race engines. D.
