This is a common problem in proprietary non-race cars with set struts. The clamps work on certain setups, and not others.
I put one on a 2wd subaru (very odd car just to look at), the front came down the maximum the clamps allowed, just to look, "almost level". they are a good idea if car does not sway, else snapping is possible.
I am contemplating a strut wrapped cold, after removing locked in heights, and lettin it have it with a mig, avoiding a pop. I have seen this in action, no crazier than a successful weld on an ebrake cable...just unlikely, and requiring some skeelz..
Spring gets left alone, and you get an exact measurement, no guessing.
