I cut off 1/2" of height on the front coils which is about 3/4 of a coil. I think it is too low although there are no shocks in these pictures. Since I need shorter shocks anyway and the rear springs are pretty much toast I just ordered a matched set of 1" and 3" front and rear drop springs and shocks to go with the 2.5 drop spindles and 2" drop blocks I have. Hopefully this works out with a bit more room for the 235/70/15 tires.
