I can either heat and strap the springs, cut the springs or remove the isolators. What do you all recommend and why?

Click to expand...

there is a picture on here with a white one, I think it has sportlines cut. It is really low.

let me see if I can find it.


edit: I can't find it, but I would remove the isolators.

edit: found this one, but its not what I was talking about
"i had sportline springs on my black 95 mustang and i always thought the back was lower than the front and i thought it looked stupid...
so when i got sportline springs for my white stang, before i put them on, i chopped on 3/4 of a coil in the front.
this is the result....."

DO NOT heat the springs. Your car will ride like A$$ (it softens the rate), and if they weren't heated evenly, you could have an uneven drop. I would try removing the isolators, then, if it's not low enough, I would try cutting 1/2 coil at a time until you get what you want. If you cut too much, you could put the isolators back in to regain some height.
