I while back i bought some Canuck lowering springs off ebay and i thing they were actually meant for the v8 while mines a 6. i can fit 3-4 fingers in the front wheel/fender gap and 0-1 finger in the rear. My question is, i know cutting the springs lowers the strength and ?compression rate? but since these are guarenteed to never sag i should be ok if i cut 1/4"-3/4" off right?

 

Are there any dead coils on the springs?

 

dead coils?

 

Yes on the bottom or top of the spring there will be a few coils when weight is on them that are touching. Those are called dead coils as they rest on one another and dont have any affect on the spring other than when you unload the suspension. Kind of like a helper spring works on a coil over setup.

 

Yeah they had them on top and bottom, i cut off a little more than 3/4 of a coil off the top today and that evened out the ride hight perfect.
