Default Trunk torsion rod install

What cool tool have any of you bought or made to install trunk torsion rods. I've got a 70 Judge I need to install the correct rods in (spoiler). Virgin territory for me. I have my jock and cup ready to go

Thanks,
Tim

I think I saw this "TOOL" in a old camaro catalog, So I mocked it up and built my own.
Flat bar, Hack Saw, Bridgeport knee Mill, Wire feed MIG welder, Can of black spray paint, Heat shrink, Heat gun, Done. Works great.
