bottoming out the a-arms on my civic:
my car is dropped on some omni full coil overs. but is there any way to stop bottoming out my skunk2 a-arms on my chassis? i already re-welded the shock towers for more clearance but it still bottoms out on some minor bums in the road. any suggestions?

You can resect the A Arm by cutting out an inch and rewelding them.
I did this with my race car. I still have the functionality of adjusting it, but no more bottoming out.
Might also want to take a look at raising it up a bit, changing the spring rates and look into shocks with more rebound/stiffness.
