I've decided to cut a coil or 2 outta my 64 C10's front springs. I'm gonna do this for a coupla reasons. First, I've never done it. Second, I'll be replacing the whole front end with the disk brake/power steering front end from my organ donor, a 74 C10. So if I don't like the results, I can always redo things.
The question I have is how many coils to remove? I've read that 2 coils resulted in about a 3 inch drop...yet only left an inch of suspension travel after trimming the snubbers. Is this about the average drop for 2 full coils? Has anyone removed more or less...and with what results?
I'd like to have the truck as low as I can get it and still be "streetable" (whatever that is) so I'm open to suggestions.
Thanks,
