There is for the rear. You can cut the spring perch on the rear shocks to allow you to lower it more. Not really much you can do to the front.

Depends how much effort you wanted to go to, I know a variety of people who have hacked up their strut towers and welded extra bits in to enable them to go lower.

True story.

what function does being lower than you are serve? you will have axle binding and other things that you will have to replace every 5k or so.

If u wanna go lower than I would think about getting some extended top hats, ur struts aren't gonna have alot of life left if there's not enough travel for them... And it does look good the way it is! :)

That looks pretty ok to me.. If you put it lower then I'm afraid you're gonna scrape the ground.. But if you still want to go lower, may I suggest lower profile tires?

if your rocking ebay coils they sit in the little cup on the back springs, just cut the sides of the cup so you can get your sleeves to go down farther.
