Just cut 1 coil & put the springs back in. Set the truck down & see where your at. If it's still too tall, trim another 1/2 coil.

Warning: Some trucks have issues w/running out of threads on the upper a-arm studs when cutting off enough coil to get 3" or more of drop. You might have to get new, longer studs if you go this route.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
