This is my one hesitation, these springs are selling for $100 and I can buy the springs that everyone else is using for $37. I do think that I may be onto something with this though, and seeing how I'm not actually out the money on the chevy's, I'm thinking of trying it. I always like to try something a littel different.larryboy said:when people are willing to pay $$ for those things i wouldn't be cutting them up. try to sell em first.
unless their bent already.
That is why I said I was adding the cut half back into the packHick said:Only problem that i see is that when you cut a spring in half, you also cut the spring rate in half. With a spring that soft i would be worried that they would just go negitave with the weight of the truck, but since i have never done a 1/4 i dont completely know.

I could outboard them too (fullwidth axles):flipoff2: Toy springs are set pretty wide, in the rear % wise from what I have seen. I have even heard of some inboarding their springs to gain perceived flex. I already rolled, into a ditch filled with freezing-ass water, so I'm not worried about that one either.TRD said:
Don't do it, srings should always be outboarded, they give you more resistance to rolling and still allow for a lot of flex, you will thank yourself later when you don't roll over.
