I cut the front coils down & heated the rears; it lowered the front end 3 inches and the rear four; it looks good now, but drags on everything! more work required....

this is with the "big block-cut" coils in front and the modified coils in the rear; the car looks good, but rides like junk.

replacing the rear coil springs; the shocks have been removed and the the vehicle gets jacked up until the coils fit; then lower it and re-install the shocks; pretty easy, actually.

this is the rear fender height with the modified Ford rear coil springs installed; about 26.5" high; the car looks good, but the ride is not great since there is only about 1.5" of travel till the rearend hits the bumpstops.

right hand front fender height, with 'lowered' coil springs installed {new big-block coils with 1.5 coils cut off} fender height is about 24". Looked great, but car rode poorly and dragged everywhere, so coils are getting replaced AGAIN!
