...and read his signature, cutting springs is bullshit, NO MATTER WHAT!!! If your cutting your springs, your destroying your handling, anybody that says your not has not driven a car that handles well. I can't believe this ---- continues to go on and on and on. I guess being sick for the past week has made me very opinionated, but a little logic will tell you that chopped springs on a set of 14 year old shocks (most likely) is a recipe for horrible handling
