Look in my gallery. The pics without the cowl hood are 4 cyl front springs and Ford C springs in the rear.

RE: question on front springs

I was surprised that you could both drop the car and get good weight transfer. I think you just have to stay around the 1 inch range, otherwise you start hurting performance.

i dont know about being dangerous but i do know if you cut a spring chances are they will continue to fall untill the body hits the tires. If you do decide to cut the springs cut the stock ones and keep the new ones for spares just incase... and ofcourse be ready to do the job twice. also i cant remember if it is KYB or who but someone does make a strut for the front that offers a 1" drop.

Are you retarded? Have you ever even cut springs? They will not continue to drop until the body hits the tires. I have cut numerous springs on 5.0's/Thunderbirds/ 4 Bangers/ S10's/ and Neons. They are all still at the same height that they were when I cut them.
