You can cut them just have to figure a way to hold the top of the spring, even though i know a number of guys with daily drivers that just cut them and run them bolted to the trailing arms and nothing holding them to the frame and never have had a problem,but for safety concerns id never suggest it, I did it on two of my trucks and just used a u-bolt from the hardware store to hold the spring on top to the frame....but that does require you to drill some holes in the frame.
