    Default cut spring. hahaha.

    so i picked up this prelude not too long ago.
    decided to cut the spring for a temporary fix to my monster truckin.
    we ended up taking 3 coils in front and 2 1/2 in back.
    now the rear is tuckin.

    nothing is wrong with a cut spring as long as you cut it right and reshape the top. I ran a cut spring at bonneville on a 4000lb truck and went 142 mph with the aerodynamic properties of a shoebox with no problems. Too many people want to jump on the hater bandwagon for no reason.
