Pete, 240K tops are around 10mm (7/16") lower than 1600 tops but the bolt pattern is a tad different - no drama if you don't mind (I don't have a problem with it, it's legal in most places) elongating your tower strut retaining holes.
Your springs are not captive now and you want to lower them more? Seriously, don't do it, go and buy some captive springs to suite your struts at the spring rate you desire (stiff is 175#, racing is 200+#) and the height you desire. Springs that are not captive are dangerous - that's why they are banned on the street, and even from most forms of motor sports. regards Terry -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, 25 November 2002 4:19 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: 240k strut tops Hi all, is it true that 240k strut tops have a 1/2 inch lowering advantage over 200b/1600 tops??? I need to lower my front end by about 30-40mm however I don't need spring compressors to remove my spring now. What will happen if I cut them down even further?
