lowering car via heating springs

mark you are such a fag… most people will not get that you are joking.

how about the fact that you cant heat and compress each spring equally, therefore you will have differnt ride height and different stiffness etc. etc. at all four corners.

then my question is that if you have the money to rent a spring compressor and then you have 4-5 hours to do all this bullshit… how can you not have $200 to buy an actual set of lowering springs?

i new a guy who heated springs in a 300zx years ago but it was because there was nothing available for the car at the time.

cutting and heating is soooo obsolete. you can get Tein springs for like $200 brand new now.

point being that if i dont have to fork out the 200 bucks why do it? if i can just heat the springs and compress them why not do it? i have an oxi torch and a b-tank as i am a plumber and use them everyday i have a shop to do it all in and everything. i was just going to jack up the car and put the jack under the controll arm and a stand under somwhere else 2 inches lower than the body, heat the springs and wait for the weight of the car to compress them for me… once it hits and lays on the stand it will have lowered the car that much… evenly troughout all 4 springs… i know this will work as iv done it before question being will the KYBs take it or will they blow up on me??

thanks for all your input everyone.
