Have you driven a stupidly low car for a prolonged period of time?

By adjuster out do you mean the adjuster ring is off. . Or the entire adjuster cup(threaded post). . Thats one way of getting lower.

Also removing the rubber topping off the spring,not sure itd be much good on the car though.

The whole adjuster is out just spring in with top rubber as wouldn't gain anything from taken it out, the only other thing is to cut springs or heat them up so they collapse

Sounds like the start of one of those compensation adverts :rofl:

when i had AP's I had the adjuster ring 1/2" from the top of the adjuster and that sat with about a 30mm arch gap, with the adjuster out that must be already silly low.

 

if you want to go much lower it will have to be on air.

Like Vrs bucks said remove the rubber at top of the spring I done that one mine and it does sit lower know

Air is to unreliable for a daily car, but I hate arch gap I will try taking the top rubber out see where that leaves me

Use mine daily. . Almost 2 years on air. .

It might have been unreliable a few years ago. . But with the airlift and accuair managment nowdays its easy to use.

Look at busses and lorrys,theyve been running air waaaaaaay longer than cars. . And are on the road more than personal cars too.
