My corsa b has Jamex shortened shocks all round and 80mm springs all round. when i replaced the 60mm springs that i had previously with the 80mm ones, the back went down but the front didn't move. ave broken the springs in since then and they still haven't moved at the front. i was thinkin about either removing the bump stops or cuttin the bump stops in half. wot do you guys think i sud do??? i want her on the ground!!

Removing the bumpstop will get her on the ground but it wont be driveable! Cut it in half at your own risk but when you hit a bump it will slam through the chassis causing possible stress damage to it, also wearing the spring pan bearing, track rods ends and balljoints MUCH quicker. You want coilovers mate if you want 80mm, anything more than 70mm on a regular style damper is just bottomed out!
