Lowering the bird

Has anyone lowered a bird using a good ol fashioned torch. I want to do it saturday and I was wondering if anyone has done it. Any tips what can I mess up on it when doing it. What would be reasons not to do it this way.

I live on a dirt road that gets pretty messed up when it rains so how far should I go If I do the drop?

If you plan to cut the coils it will create a crappy ride. Have a pro replace the springs and shocks.

For looks, that technique is okay. Otherwise, it will deminish all other aspects. You will have a crappy ride (bouncing all over the place), it will certainly compromise cornering abilities. When you cut your springs, it will create heat. Heat causes the springs to become weak. I dont reccomend it. Fork over $250, and buy a set of real lowering springs...like i did.. :icon16:

I'm going to buy springs I just wanted to lower it for the beach next weak :evillol: I quess I'll wait a couple of weaks. And I had pro to handle it! Me! No my dad is Ford Tech he knows his shit I just don't like asking him a bunch of questions.

That's what Dads are for!!!

^lol^well I'm a grown man! I bought some spring locks that I'm going to put on Monday afternoon I'm going to Panama City next weekend.

It doesn't matter how old you are to ask your Dad questions. Life is short so spend time with him and ask away!
