Where can you find a valve spring compressor for a 2004 Ford Triton V8?
I've tried every brand available in my area, nothing works! I tried looking on the internet also, and nothing!
It is a 5.4 SOHC. The cams have already been removed. Nothing fits around the valve spring, there is NO room. Thank you for the tips!
Ford uses one that fits around the cam. It's sold by Rotunda to Ford dealers but can be ordered by non-Ford people

Most universals can be used if you remove the camshaft and timing gears…. IF you want to not disturb the cams, You are either calling Rotunda and waiting a few days or call Mac Tools for the same tool and it will be a few days unless a close by dealer happens to have one.. but it's not cheap…

You didn't say if it was 4.6 2 valve or not… So I'm guessing two valve then you use Mac Tools link, If 5.4 3 valve Rotunda option only..sorry
a Ford Dealership… if they don't have it in stock they can order it and have it in 2 to 3 days.
