Question Cutting springs on my 3/4 ton

Can I cut my springs for a 1" drop? I have 3" drop spindles and a rear flip kit. I want a 4-6 drop so i was going to cut my springs 1in. Is it possible or do I have to buy 1" or just go 2". Thanks.

3/4 tonDropped Spindles

I just did the same thing to my '71, I had to raise it up to fit my 285/60R16 BFG's all the way around. I got the spindles from GMC Pauls and they fit without any grinding.
