The spring compressor comes in two flavors: a small lever arm and a more complicated lift screw. The shim pliers are just a curved set of thin pliers that allow easy access to the shims. Autozone has none of these. The pliers and the lift screw device are probably not necessary, but the levering device is. IPD has this for about $30.
