I personally have no problem with re-arching. A good spring shop will
know just what to do & how much, if you tell them how much you want the
car raised. Some will claim that cold re-arching vs heating &
re-tempering will not hold the set as long. I have found that the cold
method lasts at least 10 years.
There are usually several spring shops in a fairly large city.
