    I used it extensively when I was in automech school back in the day. We also had OTC Strut Tamer, but I liked the Branick more.

    I need to buy one for my shop, just not sure if there are better options now.

    Stuff and junk and things...
    Branik is great for a wall mounted compressor, I bought a Jack Tech SK-3000 and us it almost exclusively now. Great for OEM coilovers, LT, shocks, and multi spring UTV shocks.

    Yes, it will be wall mounted, but I may fabricate a stand for it later.
