If you really want to do that, the best place to cut is the "dead" coils at the top of the spring BUT this would require you to use something like a chop swap that will cut the whole top end flush again. That way, you are only cutting off the coils that don't really do anything. If you only have a hand grinder, start with a 1/4 coil cut from the bottom and see how much that drops it. Again, make sure you really want to do this because you can never replace a cut coil.

If you screw up... you can get a 2" drop from nopi.com for 97 bux
