Does anyone know of anywhere that can cut my standard front dampers and re-tap the thread on the top, i need a few inches off as i have 7'' 275lb springs to put on but havent got the dampers yet so was gonna do this as a temp.

help appreciated.

Cheers.

any engineering company with a lathe could do it

however i would just leave standard springs in till you get your dampers
the standards really wont cope with 275 lb the sruggle to cope at 140ish
