Oem coil spring compressor part 27035 is this compressor strong enough to use on your gmc sierra 2500 or do you need a different coil spring compressor?

How does an auto ac compressor clutch work?
A clutch for an automotive air conditioning compressor is composed of three parts. the magnetic coil the pulley the hub the magnetic coil is mounted on the front of the compressor and nestles closely insid the pulley. the Pulley is mounted on the bearing mount extension of the compressor the hub is fastened to the end of the input shaft of the compressor. It normally sits slightly above the surface of the pulley When current is introduced into the coil, the coil becomes magnetic. Then the magnetism is transferred into the pulley and it pulls the hub down to engagement.

How do you install front coil springs on a 1967 Impala?
That can be a very dangerous task. You will have to have a coil spring compressor. Jack up the car and use jack stands and NOT cinder blocks. Remove the wheel. Remove the shock absorber. Install the spring compressor through the opening and compress the spring. Put a hydraulic jack under the lower control arm. Take the lower ball joint loose and slowly lower the jack. Remove the spring and slowly release the tension until the spring is extended. Remove the compressor and install it on the new spring. Insert the spring back into the cavity and jack the lower control arm back in place and connect the ball joint. I truly do NOT recommend that you do this. It will be cheaper and safer to have a shop that specializes in front end repairs to do it for you.
