While (name deleted) may be a nice well-meaning person, in his postings, he has admitted that he doesn't know how to shorten coils, and has admitted that he doesn't think it CAN be done, and my "guess" is that he doesn't know how to check spring rates. He has said some other things that I can *show* to be incorrect, but I don't need to prove anyone wrong, or use words like "back to this crap". If you and (name deleted) worked on your car, and you are not pleased with it, it looks like it's between you guys, and I am not involved.

3 general rules:
1.Don't take your car to someone who doesn't know how to do a certain job.

2.Don't take your car to someone who doesn't think he CAN do a certain job.

3.Don't take your car to someone who believes he can't do what you ask him to do.

It's possible that it bothers him that I can both: 1. install aftermarket springs as well as 2.shorten stock springs without them flopping around, without the springs beating up the suspension, and without the tires being eaten......................something that I can actually *show* you, or anyone else that wants to take a ride with me.

Yes lets hear more on this proven measurment.......
You have a quote of what I did to my car to lower and also what I did to correct it So what would of been the correct measurment 1 coil or half coil because me and (name deleted) did measure and the heighth was right but how do you measure spring rate or load GUESS that what cut springs are a big guess

Here's a general idea, on lowering a non-coilover Domestic car.
He leaves out a few things including how to precisely measure and
understand a suspension, before you mess up the spring.

I'm the only person on Tampa Racing.com who knows how to precisely
measure the suspension. Get in touch with me. Here's some general principles:
