So what would you suggest then, should i do it while the coils are laden with weight on the ground with my hand in between the tire and fender this way i get accurate measuring of how much of a drop i get.....or should i use jack stands and lay underneath the car? Just in case sparks fall on my face (BTW only pansies use safety goggles) and i flail around knocking the jack stand out and having the car land on me?

Why not take the coils off of the car and then do them with a cut-off wheel? There is a novel idea.

That's the way I did it to take 1 coil off, sure it was a bitch to take each strut out, but the car sits pretty level and I took the same amount off each corner.

Id suggest pulling them out of the car then cutting them.


I agree with the safter goggle theory though.

You say that until you get metal shards in your eye. I've had it happen a few times and was lucky to get them out using an eye wash.

I had a teacher in school get a piece of metal in his eye and they actually had to take is eyeball out of the socket and scrape the piece of metal off his eye.

I'd rather not have to do that.

Just set shit on fire... Customers cars are the best to set on fire cause then you get all worked up trying to put it out.
