## Description

The ATLIN Strut Spreader Socket is an essential for shock maintenance and general suspension work on any vehicle equipped with a pinch bolt, clamp style strut hub.Some vehicle manufacturers design their front struts to be clamped into the knuckle. This is commonly called a pinch bolt hub. Removing the bolts will not be enough to detach the shock from a vehicle featuring this design. After the bolts are removed, a spreader socket must be placed into the strut clamp and rotated. This will spread the spindle housing hub away from the strut and allow it to be removed.WHAT ARE THE DIMENSIONS AND MATERIALS? Strut removal tool features a 1/2” drive, pry bit measures 5.5x8.2mm, S2 tool steel, chrome vanadium (CR-V)

Review: Good tool - Worked as advertised, used on an Audi A6

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this work for 2016-22 Honda pilot front struts?**
A: I am not aware Honda requires a stut spindle mount spreader.  As far as I know Honda pilots and most Asian card bolt on struts with 2 primary bolts to the spindle.

**Q: what seller warranty??**
A: Well made tool that I'll probably never use again.  The strut replacement job would've been much more difficult without it.  Try removing the struts without it and you'll see why it's needed.  Looks like the warranty is 30 days.
