You can get manual ones from Harbor Freight Tools for around $10-$15. I've got a set and actually did my springs over this weekend. Took about 4 casual beers long to do with air tools... If I had the right box end ratchet, it would have made it 3 beers...[/b]
4 beers... that about 20 minutes my time! How long did it actually take you to change all 4 springs? I just called O'Rileys Auto parts and they said that they will give me a spring compressor for $80 and when I bring it back they will give me my money back. But if Harbor Freight Tools has some I'll just get it there! I live about 2 blocks from that place!

No no no, 4 casual beers, not normal ones. Sip, then work, sip then work, then piss, then sip then work then... laugh

About 3 hours is what I had in them all told. I was also dragging my summer rims and tires out of the rafters and cleaning those up so the total time was around four hours after that. It also took me a while to remember my "safe place" that I had my lugnuts stored in which was around 20 minutes...
