So you can spread them over the control valve that inserts into the pump. I was chatting with Lawson about how difficult a job this is for a one man operation. With Hobo's help, I fabricated one of those hooks on a long steel rod and my son helped me get it together but it was a real PITA. Lawson mentioned a spreader tool that is no longer made which got me to thinking. It would be easy to modify one of those tools you use to compress a disc brake caliper that has a big knob for this application. Maybe someone else has a better idea.

I am thinking of using a short female threaded hex
rod with a slip joint u on one end and a threaded rod
with a u on the other end.
Hard to explain but you may get the jist of it.
I may use some scrap square tubing and cut to
make the u's. Will weld the u to the end of the
threaded rod.
Will have to be clever on the slip end u.
Might just use a short smooth dowel rod with a u that can slip in the hex rod for that end.

In this pix the control valve is still attached to the fork dunno how it got there unless I took it out with out removing it from the fork...
I am bad to take the draft sprang off and the lift arms before I take a lift cover off a tractor I am going to part out, maybe taking it off gives you enoufh room to get the control valve out... You got yours off give it a shot...
