Thanks, but no thanks dude.

It's a bodge.
The shock lengths are too long when springs are cut, plus the temper of the springs can suffer and a host of other issues can occur. Guy I used to work with cut two coils from the fronts and rears of his Rover 400 thing, went a bit too fast over a hump-back bridge.........bye bye rear springs, hello hospital.
Lucky he escaped with his life after seeing the state of the Rover after that happened.

Mar 2010 at 15:17 With the vectras,the back end always seems cocked up in the air.My brother lowered his 60mm,and it never really moved that much,so 30mm you aint going to notice at all.He does still have the rear ones,and these ones havent been cut.
