Not the easiest or nicest tool to use (just thin metal handles with a fairly awkward pivot point because the handles have a function as well) but they do the job where it is a complete nightmare to work with drum brake springs otherwise. If you have to work with drum brakes, this is the best option I know of. I personally think these should be 3 tools in a pack for a few quid more rather than trying to be a 3 in 1 hack tool.

The rivet on the pliers lasted 5 minutes, so replaced with a nut and bolt. the shoe retaining tool works a treat. Good value for the price. Quality score is for using a crappy rivet that doesnt work

The spring pliers are ok the spring retainer removal took I found one end too small the other end but to big and it also herts the palm of your hand as it’s fairly sharp

The spring pliers are insufficient for the purpose and difficult to manipulate. The Brake spring washer tool takes no account of the strength of the retaining spring as such you end up with if not cut hands intensely sore hands. Not a satisfactory purchase at all, thinking of binning them!

Saves a lot of skint fingers/knuckles and the hunting for the spring/washer, should've bought this years ago

1st use they fell apart. They are very flimsy for the job they need to do very poor quality. I wouldn’t waste time just use mole grips like we always do these make the job harder and more awkward.
