Default Bad Idea or not....

Well i orederd a camber kit and lowring spirngs. I got the springs and they are all messed up so i sent them back. So now i have a camber kit. And i ran into some stuff that i had to spend my money on so now i dont have enough for the springs. Is it a bad idea to cut the stock springs and put the camber kit on. I herd it gave you a shitty ride. Let me know what you guys think and if you did it tell me how i went.

Wouldnt recomend it. But I have heard that It can be done but you have to get it done right (same cut on both fronts and rears). An old school speed shop can probably do it for you and set it up ok.

Um no don't do it, you'll be sorry. Not only will the ride suck, but you'll have to do the work twice when you actually get lowering springs later. I personally wouldn't even do the springs until you can afford to replace the shocks, also. Save up and do it right the first time. Believe me, it's ALWAYS better that way.

Just wait it out until you can afford a decent strut/spring package, I can 'almost' guarantee you will regret cutting your stock springs. A properly lowered ride is rough, cut springs is ****.....Also if you do decide to cut the springs you can kiss your struts goodbye, they will be garbage in no time...
