Re: Are these springs collapsed or cut?

I have read you get a 1" drop from every 1/2 coil cut; I am going to guess that if you put 3" drop springs on your truck you may get about a 1.5" drop from where you are at now looking at how much those are collapsed. I had the same issue, put 3" coils on the rear of mine and it actually went up (measuring wheelwell to ground)...I came back in and added 2" blocks. Definitely no c-notch on 3" drop, I am at 5" total and have never hit frame (3" ECE springs, 2" blocks). When I had 5" CPP springs (which collapsed a lot as well right out of the box) I bottomed out a lot.
