Wouldn't cutting the tower cuase a decrease in structural integrity of the car?

ill post the pic to show you what happened, but he did actually mess with the a-arm. he just filed it down about an 1/8", so now it just barely misses the wall. so no more lowering for me or else i have to cut.

I am pushing Skunk2 and progress to come up with kits for your car that solve that problem, I hope that they start production.

You have to wonder if they will cause premature ball joint or arm fatigue.

yea it doesnt look too pretty, but he just further filed down where it was already scratched from hitting the well. but hey serves its purpose, and a hell of lot better than hearin a bang over every bump.
