That looks pretty nice! I think I may just have to keep the new u bolts and use the old ones though, because I like a lower drop, I'll just get blocks and use the new u bolts at that time.

Personally I'd tighten them U-bolts up, measure 1/2" from the face of the nuts, and cut there - then again I've got a damn good reason to be so wary of ground clearance and stuff potentially being caught, I had a cruise control incident last fall and I lost my side exhaust and two good rear tires cause stuff got caught on a curb...
