The D brake piston, in particular, is quite narrow so I would imagine you’d need the ‘custom made’ spring compressor tool at least for that one.
The three sizes I use are :
Large (D brake) = 164mm o/d, 155mm i/d
Medium (B clutch & E brake) = 110mm o/d, 97mm i/d
Small (A & C clutches and F brake) = 89mm o/d, 80mm i/d
These are the diameters where the tool actually contacts the spring but you may wish to add a step in the ‘hoop’ to bring it up to a large enough diameter to weld the ‘handles’ to.
Each tool is around 125mm tall (total height top to bottom) to suit my mandrel press.
