4th Generation oh yay gen 4's!!!

ahhhhh, gen 4 (v6) drop problems!!!! whats new...

well anyways, got springs, drop was uneven, so i spaced the back and cut a coil in the front...

it sits EXACTLy where i want it to, buuuttt...now i've got a bouncy ride (front suspension only)...

is this because the shock is being compressed more?

or is it because I cut off the progressive part of the spring??

has ANYONE had ANY good luck with an even drop on these gen 4's???

If so please tell me the brand of spring and model...this has been a 4 month project alone for me and im tired of it lol...

ive always been against cutting personally...but the drop was abosuletely horrible...figured the springs were cheap comparatively...if i get shocks with the cut springs, will i lose the bounciness of the current setup??? surprisingly, the difference i cut actually made a huge difference in the body roll that i got... but anyway, im looking for suggestions...i dont want to do coilovers yet, if i do...need advice from other members that have had similar issues, or know about this issue...PLEASSEEEE!!!! let me hear your endeavors too...
