It sucks, but go slow. Cut half a coil at a time, re-install, bounce on the rear a bit to help it settle down, and check again.

No, I just have McGaughy's springs installed right now. My plan is to cut them in the spring to get the truck and inch lower, front and rear.

Yea whatever will make it level.. But I gotta be stingy on money. In the process of rebuilding my banshee and noble the 12th!
