I have this theory about cars and suspensions in particular.
The are designed by engineers for a purpose and reason.
The days of making changes w/ no side effect are over.
You start to throw everything out of wack and put presure on parts that werent designed for that particular load.
especially on smaller economy cars where margins are already thin. Parts are only designed w/ so much tolarance.
I have seen it time and time again on the infiniti forum.
