Chopped Springs Fri, 03 January 2003 09:12 Go to previous message
Hey everyone,

I've heard a lot of stories about chopped springs. However, I could never understand why it's bad.

I just wanna know the disadvantages in the following situations.

a) A poor person wants to lower his car, but does not have the cash. He takes to his springs with an angle grinder and chops 2 coils of the top of them.

b) A slightly wealthier person buys a second hand set of proper lowered springs but realises that the ride height still isn't low enough. Once again this person takes to the set with his grinder and chops and coil or two off the top.

What are the disadvantages in both of these instances?

Thanks
Jules
