No, those clamps really were used to lower the car, not compress the springs for installation work. I know because I bought some (a long time ago -- in the day that we used to use lowering blocks on the rears). They were only long enough to compress two adjacent coils together -- I've seen the installation tool and they are much longer because they have to compress a lot. Anyway, don't get them, they don't work. Just bite the bullet and buy new springs.
