Flip the rear (it gives 6" of drop), drop spindles up front and start by cutting the coils in the front 1/2 coil at a time. There's nothing wrong with cutting coils, just use a blade/ cutoff wheel and not a torch.

So you're having him lower it so he won't have a 4x4 to get stuck in a ditch somewhere? Not that a 15y/o would get stuck in a ditch in a 4x4 (I did!), but there's always mud. I will say your rigs don't look like they get stuck often.
