4KQ spring chop?

if you use the upper strut mount from a later model 90 it will drop the
front about 1/4". not sure how much you looking for, but i'd be hesitant to
cut springs especially if you bottom out a strut and smash the valve. then
you have to do the spring and the struts...

> I've heard of it being done before, but wanted to confirm. Can you cut a
coil off of the front springs on a 4kq? The front of my car rides fairly
high and I'm too cheap to buy lowering springs. I'm putting new strut
mounts in this weekend though and while everything was out I thought I could
cut the springs (with a cutting wheel, not a tourch). How likely is it that
the strut would bottom out (bump stops are still good, PO replaced them)?
Thanks!
