You are contradicting yourself here. You say you want to do it cheap, but don't want to cut your front springs. If it were me, I would cut the front coils and use that money saved for new shocks. You might get by with out them, but I would change the shocks anyway.

The best method is new springs and new shocks. If you can't afford that, there is no reason why you can't cut the front coil until you can afoord to do it right. Cut is fine, heating is bad.
