Michael,
Actually when I do work of this nature I use either my large bench vise,
or my hydraulic press. Most of the time the parts are off the car. I only
suggested the c-clamp (portable vise with small jaws) because the part is
still on the vehicle and it's kinda difficult to get the press into position
while the spring is on the car :-)
