Just making the 15-mile leisurely drive to work and back (30 total) each day.

Again, thanks to everyone who weighed in. Probably another good thread would be the alternatives to OEM. Someone mentioned other brands. I have looked a little on car parts sites and have not found anything that is available on a shelf or ready to ship, stock or stiffer ride. I must be looking in the wrong places.
I did ALOT of searching for a strut that could be easily modified to work on an SVX about a year ago.
I found nothing.
If I did not have a full time job, I am sure that I could find something that would work, but sadly the mortgage is due, regular work calls.
