Q: Is the stand itself enough for strut compression?
A: No. This stand holds the strut assembly; you still need a separate strut compressor (clamp or strut tool) to compress the coil spring.
Q: Does it include adapters or compression tools?
A: No. The 6582 is just the stand unit; it does not include compression adapters, spring compressors, or strut-specific attachments.
Q: Can I move the stand easily around the shop?
A: Yes. The stand has built-in wheels to tilt and roll it. During compression, the wheels lift off the floor and rubber pads secure the base firmly.
