Default Suspension question

Skunk2 struts, eBay coils. Since I'm all the way down anyways would it be dangerous to take off the adjuster piece? I want more low really, comfort doesnt matter its shitty anyways. I'm thinking it will lower it more..

just cut the cup in the rear if you want to get lower.

i dont know why youre even asking if its dangerous. the way you set up the car is dangerous already. so its a dumb concern.

How is it dangerous already? I'm just not trying to have the spring fall of the strut.

It is not dangerous at all to remove the adjuster piece. Just remove it and go like half an inch lower LIKE A BOSS.

I did it. It quite literally put my bumper on the ground.

The only problem I had was it bounced so ****ing bad, I couldn't take a corner even remotely hard, unless it was a smooth as glass. Which, it is very hard to come by here.

I went quite a bit lower than a inch.

Just take the sleeves out and run the springs if you want it low. (seriously don't do that)
