Oh no! Half? How are you able to calculate that? Are you using a cad system? I better rethink my design....

Also, your name is fifty150 and you're telling me something is unsafe

You're being dramatic.

Here's the bottom of the strut

Disclaimer- don't try this, it's dangerous I found a way to easily lift the front of my tc for a little extra ground clearance. Takes about 20 min with just hand tools Remove the wheel, loosen the bolt that clamps the knuckle to the strut and slide the knuckle down the strut about 3/4". I was able to gain about 1" of ground clearance. The car has no change in handling and I'm really happy with the outcome. This gives the knuckle slightly less strut to clamp to so it could potentially bend the bottom of the strut if you hit something really hard but I don't see it being much of an issue.

Hey Amigos, new owner here in southern California. Stay tuned while I try to make this thing a little more baja adventure-worthy. I was able to lift the front yesterday nearly 1" for free! I'll do a little write up on it later.
