So i blew my front struts up and I need to change them, in order to do so I need a spring compressor. I was wondering if anyone had one that I could borrow for saturday if UPS is on time and i get my shocks tomorrow?

You do need spring compressors if your replacing stock shocks. At least it really helps. Canadian Tire will rent you the tool. You have to pay the full price ($100+) up front though. You have a couple days to use them and return them.
