I need to see if anyone has a template for cut out the spring pockets, I have cut out the PS and I need to know if the bump stops (upper a-arm and the one at the front of the pocket) need to be cut? I have some rubbing and I want to fix the problem. I have filled the shockwave up to 100psi and I can not even get the fr ame off the jack (this can' t be right). This kit came off my 87 Grand National and they are the old flat top Shockwaves with the 2" stud adapters and I have put the factory arms and stock spindels back on the car. Basically I need to know if I have cut out enough metal and why with 100psi the car will not raise up. Help!!!

Yea with the stock arms and spindles and the 2" stud top you should be OK. How much travel do you have? It usually take 115psi or better to get it to ride height. You might just need more pressure.
