Hi guys. I walked into the garage the other morning and the front passenger side was sitting REAL low...I mean lower than a VIP pimpin' ride kinda low.

I know what this usually means, but as I am in the process of retrimming my seats, blue dash conversion etc. etc., the car's not on the road at the moment. I know it's not good to leave it low and wonky on one side like that, so I turned the car on, the compressor inflated the bag and while it was inflated, I placed a jack under the car and have left it propped up at the correct height.

I was hoping for some opinions as to whether this is going to cause any damage or more problems. I will replace the strut, but as the car's not going to be driven for a few months, I was wondering if I could get away with this stop-gap and spare my bank balance the pain for a few months.

Seems like a good idea to me, I cant think of any damage it would do as long as it is properly jacked.

Sounds fine to me.
