A warning. I know it will be a rare event when someone does what I did but I figure I will offer a warning in the case that someone does do what I did. (Feel free to refute my claim)

Some time back I decided to raise the rear end of my 300D by adding larger coil/spring shims in the rear. The result was unfavorable as I believe the higher angle of the differential to the hub assembly was too much increased and and put too much strain on the cv-axle boots. (old boots in moderate condition, and no i did not tear them durning the shim removal and replace process) As a result the boots tore, both in exactly the same location and at about the same time.

I added the 19mm from stock. And am now back to stock.

Why did I do this in the first place? I wanted to look at less of the hood.
