Re: My 82 shortbed
One complete loop cut off a front spring usually ends up being about 2" of drop. So in your case you only want 1" more which is 1/2 a loop.

Re: My 82 shortbed
Another idea: you can see how low it sits with the motor and tranny weight on the frame as well, then pop off the spring and cut it to your taste before you put the fenders on?
