Hello, i am looking to get a new set of struts. I have a pair or tokikos for the front of my atx with lowering springs, the tire is just under the wheel well at eye level. I am going to get a pair or menro sensatracs for the rear and my cargo coils. Is there a right way to cut them so you dont get that ricer bounce?? or sould i just leave the back at stock height? thanks for the help

there is no real reason to cut the rear coils. Especially when using the Monroe sensatracs. Front coils yes, rear coils no. There is PLENTY of room to drop the strut in the knuckle for a healthy drop.

Try a search for "dropping the strut in the knuckle"

It is quite easy.
