Suspension and mods
 
I'm curious if there is any way to lower my 94 accord lx without getting a lowering kit or springs. I'm attempting to fabricate everything from scratch. Also, is there any fabrication mods anyone knows about? thank you.

Well there is a way, but its not really safe, or a good idea. But people have been known to cut the stock springs so the car rides lower. But it is not something I would recommend doing.

Why is that not safe?

Its very hard to cut them all at the same length, and when its cut its not really formed as it was stock to seat properly. It will also make for a very rough ride.

I personally would never think of doing it, especially as a set of lowering springs is $300 or less.

why not just slam nails in all the exterior panels of your car and hit pedestrians...that's basically what you wanting to do with your "lowering mod" doing stupid mods like that will get yourself killed and others. Thank smart...if you can't pay...don't play.

hey i can't help it if i find fabricating everything in a car to have more meaning. I am however terrible sorry that your so distraught about not being able to fabricate stuff for yours. Enjoy your day kind sir.

I dont think cutting springs with a grinder is really considered fabrication but thats just me...

It's modifycation. if that's even a real word lol. I'm looking more into it though and i think i've found a safe way to do it.

The safe way is called aftermarket springs and struts.
You are a dumba** if you do it any other way.

No one on this board wants to hear about your unsafe mods, look for another forum to post on.
