OK, Look I probably have twice as many tools in my boxes as you do. I have he exact same way of thinking about tools.I typically like to buy quality tools. Renting some POS from a parts house just doesn't tweak me.
BUT, I decided to rent the spring compressor from O'Reilly when I did mine. I have never in my life rented a tool until that one, but I can honestly say that if I had to do it all over again. I wouldn't change a thing.
Rent it.
You are only going to do this once.
