Re: Cutting Springs?

I would not recommend it at all. I just replaced my springs, the fronts where cut and constantly made snapping noises when driving slowly in to holes.

The rears where heated to lower them, but they also didn't do it well.
After putting the lowering springs on the burb, it is driving much nicer.
It did cost 200 buck but it was well worth it.

Re: Cutting Springs?

Heating your springs is like letting all the air out of your tires, It will make your truck lower, but it is a really bad idea if you want to drive it.
