Spring Pad Question

[egk2]

I want my front end lower. Is it worth the trouble to remove my front sprig pads? Thanks

[nando]

it won't make much more than 1/4" to 3/8" worth of difference. it depends on if you have the means to do it easily.

[egk2]

Any problems associated with removing them?

There will be metal on metal contact. That is the only problem I could see with it. The spring is probably compressed on there to the point where it wouldnt be moving around.

No issues, just some rub wear and rust on the springs. Oh and some squeak.

Thanks guys, I might do lowering spring seats from BMP soon, I'm just not happy with the stance.
