Is it true that lowering springs hurt ur shocks? Also can you buy bump stop that are already shortened?

^ Using lowering/stiffer springs can shorten the life of your struts/shocks, but it won't hurt them for quite a while.

Cutting the bump stops is very easy to do, and you can always buy stock ones again if you ever need them.

it does feel like that, did you notice any bending on the rubber of the rack and pinion? or maybe just my perspective as I took a peek from top of the engine around the exhaust area

Are my observations correct, did this happen to you guys as well that the rack and pinion now is a bit bent or should I say curved like this can you please peek into your bonnets and see it from the top on the exhaust side.

Never even looked at that. I will take a look later today. Maybe one of our suspension gurus can chime in with an expert opinion.
