Hey everyone,
I’ve been looking around for drop coil springs for up front and was wondering if anyone knew what’s the lowest I can go with just a spring? (No drop spindles)
I’m even thinking about cutting a couple coils off the old spring because I can’t seem to find any 6” drop springs.
I’m wanting to do 6”

Thanks for any advice!

You need spindles and springs,the coils won't be long enough to stay in place,and the spring rate will be crazy as will the A arm Tie rod and ball joint angles,and with that much move on the lower control arm,finding shocks that will work won't be easy either.
