folks w/lowered cars, please comment...

<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV>
<P>Mine have a decided upward angle, the car also dropped more than an inch I think. I can barely get two fingers between the front tire (195-50-15) and the fender.</P>

<DIV></DIV>Your H&amp;R race springs caused poor alignment of a-arms? My brother's car 
<DIV></DIV>with H&amp;R race is only lowered a little bit (about 1") and his a-arms are 
<DIV></DIV>parallel to the ground.

<DIV></DIV>Same here, H&amp;R race springs have caused a rather deplorable state of 
<DIV></DIV>alignment. I would certainly be interested in a solution. 
<DIV></DIV>Anson 
<DIV></DIV>Yup it's lowered (H&amp;R coilovers) 
<DIV></DIV>Yup, the a-arms are pointing to the heavens. 
<DIV></DIV>Yup the tie-rods are pointing to glory as well. 
<DIV></DIV>I'd be interested in a good quality spacer.

<DIV></DIV>Here's a few questions for you all: 
<DIV></DIV>a) Who out there has lowered their car? 
<DIV></DIV>b) Of those cars, are your a-arms pointed upwards? 
<DIV></DIV>c) How about your tie-rods? 
<DIV></DIV>I ask because I'm working on a mod to relocate the tie-rods to mount 
<DIV></DIV>from 
<DIV></DIV>underneath rather than from above. I'm also having spacers made to move 
<DIV></DIV>the 
<DIV></DIV>a-arms down to level (or slightly downwards) when the car is lowered. 
<DIV></DIV>This 
<DIV></DIV>will cure the bump steer problems that we get when we drop our cars. 
<DIV></DIV>Lemme know, please. If folks actually need these, I may make some 
<DIV></DIV>extras. 
<DIV></DIV>Thanks!
