Was the car ever in an accident?
I'm sure there are plenty of people on here that can make it, but the profit wouldn't make it worth it for them. If I were you I would just put washers between the strut and the body to lower it.

I didn't think it would be that much of a mission to do this, but I guess it is... I'm just gonna go to a local shop and ask. If I had something to cut the shape into a piece of aluminun or steel, I'd just do it myself.
Thanks for helpin out a fellow HMT'er.

I'd still need to get a kit, so it'd be a lot more than $80.
$240 is including parts.
Regardless it's still alot and i'd prolly just install the kit myself and see if Tires Plus will realign it with my alignment warranty.
As for the spacer, I think i'm gonna get some 1/8" aluminum locally or off ebay and try to cut it up myself. I'll just stack them up in a few layers to level it all out.
Anybody see any problems with this? Will 4 or 5 layers of 1/8" aluminum be able to support the weight on the strut without compressing too much?
