Uneven front end.. easier to lower..
 
2 Attachment(s)
Apparently when my wheel came off a while back and I busted my brake drum I also snapped one of my front coil springs

I was wondering why the front was sitting uneven so now that I have a picture of it all I need to do is lifted up and take the broken piece off cut the equal amount on the right side to lower it

Looks like 1 ful coil but isn't too much lower cuz the broken piece is still in there

So instead of replacing a old, rusty, and broke part out your going cut into another rusty worn out part?
Budget or not your risking your ass and others by doing this. ��

This
Springs aren't that expensive. Is it really worth the risk?

Classic Industries has new lowering springs for $100. There may be places that have them cheaper.

$100 isn't worth risking your truck or someones life.

A new pair of stock height original springs is $75 @ AutoZone.
