I am looking to just lower my Stang just about 3/4 inch front and 1/2 rear, nothing much just want it to sit a little nicer. Can i just cut off part of the spring or will it effect my ride? I am saving up for an sc and dont want to waste $200 on new springs. Will this work or.....

Also, how do i remove the rear springs? I know how to do the front but no the rear ones?

 

Some people do cut them but I would say don't do it.

Springs are designed to work a certain way, when you start cutting them, they dont work the same. They could wware out faster and may give you a crappy ride.

 

I was told it was'nt good to cut.

 

Yes you can cut the springs, and they'll work just fine, but you will have to get somebody that knows what they're doing to do the job, because if you just run out and cut them in any old way, you'll have problems.

 

Would you save a lot of money by doing this

 

Well you'd save the $200-400 that the springs and shocks cost, but you'll still have to pay for labor.

 

So basically he wont save much, but once again i learn something new cause like dstang i was always told cutting the springs = Nono!!!!

 

Well I've heard both ways, but in the old days, how do you think they lowered cars, because aftermarket springs were still just a dream.

 

So what do you guys think..should i do it or not? How hard is it to dismount 4 springs and mount em back on?

 

Don't do it yourself though, noticed I said get a pro to do it, because if you're off by just a smidge, you'll have problems. Call a few local shops and see what they say.
