You need help if you are considering chopping your springs!

[blabla]

All springs moorebank 400 fitted and made to what ever height you want it.

EK civic is double wishbone not macpherson

And chopping springs is illegal is unsafe

[DLO01]

Don't skimp man. Its a bad way to mess with your suspension safety wise and as said illegal.

I can get a full set of BRAND NEW King Springs Super or Ultra Lows for under $400 (not including fitting) if you want them instead of chopping up your springs

if you have to ask, you shouldnt do it.

No need for all the hate

We are not hating, chopping your springs isnt a very good idea considering it can fall out if you go over a bump lol.

[stndrd]

As a mechanic, I know this, but 2 or 3 posts stating not to should be enough

[trism]

This is ozhonda but.

Lololoool.

To the OP. I do not recommend this, and neither myself, or ozhonda can be held liable for anything negative that may occur if you follow through with this.

First up you need to remove the struts and take the springs out. Don't ask how, use your head and do a search on google.

Then once you've got the springs out, put them I'm a vice where they won't move. Then using an angle grinder, cut off how ever many coils you want. Don't go half, start off with say, a third of the total length of the spring. So if there's 12 coils on it, cut off 3 or 4.

Then spray the end you cut with paint so it doesn't rust.

Put it all back together and enjoy your VN Commodore spec suspension.
