Hi fellows, I had an accident 3 months ago, the thing is that now I repaired everything only one thing missing.. ok I lowered my car by cutting the spring (please no comment about wut I did please) , the thing is that the car now is really low, but when I get to the road it feels EXACTLY as when struts die (the car jumps a lot and any hole in the road you feel it in your A$$
 ) can some one help me please?? maybe the reason could be that because the car is very low, the struts are not doing their work?? could I fix that by cutting the struts on the top ??? please help me , I dont have too much money to spend so "please do not tell me to get coilover or wut ever please" 
-------------------- !! THERE IS NO SPOON !! ............. so?? .... use your HAND!!!!

You probably need new struts/shocks, and new springs (you can buy someone's OEM springs for cheap I'm sure) so that you don't kill your new struts/shocks.
