Infiniti FX Lowering Springs

[FXtion]

Has anyone tried cutting a half loop off the spring without taking the strut off?

hmm... if you heat it, then you run the risk of loosing spring rate and if you use any saw (electric etc) it would be dangerous.

maybe Im wrong, but I wouldn't do it like that, definitely get it done right.:top: (r&r)

I agree with Allen.

Better to take them off and the have the coil cut off by a pro

6366.140 seems like a old part number. could not find anyone selling it and not on Eibach's website

Maybe they remade the springs after those issues with them snapping, and now they have a new part number?
