[QUOTE="freight hauler, post: 1990925, member: 22069"] I've been cutting coils for years, on virtually all my rides. Never had any problems with the exception of cutting too much. One thing I learned is not to cut a progressive rate spring. Not sure if the steeds's are progressive or not. A linear rate spring will be fine to cut, after all it was cut at the manufacturer (supplier) to its original length per ford specs. Good luck. P.S. You "can" use a torch (cut at a high temp) to cut the springs. You get in trouble using a torch on progressive rate springs. I do not suggest ever cutting a progressive rate by any means. There is too much guess work involved and then there is a good chance the spring will fade and lose its spring. [/QUOTE]
