on mb w123, must cut the bottom.
winmutt, there was a guy who cut too much and was quite humble about posting pictures of his screw up. forgot if he cut 3 or 4 coils. then he fixed it and was happy. Have to look at my notes.
if cut 3 in front and 2 in rear, then the rake will increase from 1/2 inch to maybe 1 1/4 inch. car might look like an anteater.
to keep the same rake, then have to cut front and rear equally.
If you look at the German mobsters look after WWI, they had zero rake.
To get that look, would have to eliminate 1/2 inch by diff donuts front to rear or mess with the shims which i will become an expert in
after doing this.
