i have a 2000 scsb lookin for a 3 inch drop in the front. can someone post a picture of were to cut it. and dose it matter what end i cut. ive read up on this alot just looking for a clear answer from people that have done it.and are there any draw backs to cutting the front coils (alignment, bump steer, ball joints falling apart, ect.)

 

i think the rule of thumb is 1 coil = 1.5 inch drop... sooo go 2 coils down from where the top of the coil ends and cut there.... i would prob cut about 1 1/2 coil off first and go form there if ur scared of too much drop

 

yea i would do 1 1/2 first but i think 1 coil = 2" drop, i think ull have trouble with alignment not sure

 

trouble with alignment are you talking about not being able to fix the camber?

 

Just did this a few months ago and 1 full coil gave me 3" of drop....

 

alignment was fine after words on your truck?

 

Yep, it aligned fine. I got pics in the show&shine if you want to see how it sits..

 

looks good. i want a 5-6/8 drop but cant do it tell this summer so this will get me lower tell then

 

Nothing wrong with cutting a coil... it still rides good up front.. stock shocks and all

 

did you cut your bump stops? and what end of the coil did u cut?
