Since I install aftermarket springs at a good price for people who don't mind spending a lot to buy them, as well as shortening stock springs to lower cars while using stock adjusters, and my experience on the cars I have worked on, shows:

That if a spring is too short, the spring is too short, and it doesn't matter if you paid $300 for a brand new too-short spring, or if you made them too short all by yourself.-Bob

When someone wants me to lower their car with cut springs, the secret is in understanding how the suspension works, and measuring the suspension. I seem to be the only one on TR who can successfully cut springs without springs flopping around, without suspensions getting beat up, and without the tires being eaten up. AND I CAN PROVE IT.
When anyone wants to see for themselves what I'm talking about
is true, get back to me.-Bob
