If you talked about cutting springs in a fb group they would flip out. They'd say that's the worst thing you can do and you shouldn't be working on cars. Funny thing is I cut my springs long before the internet came along lol.

I just did this to my car after watching this video. I NEVER would have attempted this without this video or some kind of advice. Thanks for the how to’s. Thats the reason I like youtube!

I'm a Camaro guy but I like your channel anyway. Finally someone that tells the truth about cutting springs and shows how to do it properly. I'm looking to cut the springs on my iroc Camaro sometime soon when this PA cold weather decides to kick rocks. My Brother has a fox body and we're always dissing each other, we sound like a couple of teenagers fighting over a girl. Typical Mustang vs Camaro feud. He's got a 5.0 full bolt-ons, headers and exhaust and I have a 350 high compression with an aggressive cam, quadrajet, headers, 5-speed swap. He gets me out of the hole every time but I walk by around the 90 mph mark. I never could believe how well a fox body responds to mods. Good straight line cars but I completely blow him away on the back windy roads. Fun stuff and I like your channel 👍

I found that You can eliminate the stock insulators on the springs and use heat shrink tubing in their place to keep the noise down, makes it ride more smoothly! Great content Thank You . 🇺🇲 🇵🇷 🦊 👍

Fireeeee! I wished my springs were that easy to replace. You made it look SO GRAVY!

I’ve put shorter vert springs in the back and cut the fronts. Car rode great. I also put a smaller V6 sway bar on the front while leaving the stock 5.0 in the rear. It made the car stop pushing when at cornering grip limit. Handle completely neutral, and was easy to throttle steer if I wanted. Counterintuitive but worked great.

Holy shit! Finally someone not scared to show how to cut springs! Good for you B!

Bout damn time someone else said it. I’ve been flamed on so many groups etc for “cutting springs” but I hated feeling like I was riding on a 2x4 and still not getting the drop I wanted. This was always my go too

So glad you got the ponies! I really want a set. Always been my favorite wheels!

well i'am more confident now to start on my 1999 nissan gloria y33 and start to cut .. al i need was your video thanx bud !! 👍🏻 Old School works better 👍🏻

Just picked up a mustang for my son his first car we are having a great time with it already restoring it

Love the videos. Doing this to my 90 tonight!

Thank you for this video tutorial without it I wouldn’t be able to do it. I can say is just cut my springs and I couldn’t be more happy for the looks. 87 GT hatchback

Honestly bro i trust you. Idk if it’s the fox body or the nice shop but I been told my whole life not to chop springs. I bet ppl were just doing it wrong. Thanks for the great info my dumb ass unfortunately already got springs but good video man keep up the good work.

Another great video my Brother! Cutting the springs and saving money is the way to go. 💯 Nothing like wasting money on lowering springs and then having to cut them because your 🦊 still doesn’t sit low enough. Definitely getting the springs out is easier than I thought. 💯👊🏾

Followed this video !!! Thanks made the process whole lot easier faster !! Now im tucking the 15s though ... need new springs 😊

I bought the tool from MM that's supposed to work wonders. I do like how you slid strut out and left everything on. I was going to do Eibachs but I may try cutting them to see if I like it. I had mine lowered years ago and I hated the ride so much we put stockers back in, which was a struggle. The right side spring didn't go in perfectly, leaving it sitting high on that side and it has been like that for about 20+ years.

Got my decals today brow. Thx

Good video bruh. I been preaching this for so many years! We talk about this often!!

Hell yeah!!, Im excited about those ponies. Id say blue and grey two tone but I dont know how it would look with red interior. Keep it all red, less work, maybe.

Just wondering how to fix the front fender alignment from bad jack placement. Please show us! Thanks for all your videos.

I tried this exact method when trimming the front springs on my vert. I only cut 1/2 a coil out and removed the isolators to be safe. No matter how hard I struggled, I could not get the springs back in. Had to give up and remove the control arm bolts from the K-member and install them from the inside. Probably would have worked if I cut a full coil, but I wanted minimal effect on ride quality. Good video Brew

I feel like you're letting some people know that they don't control you. I know you're an absolute real everyday dude who works on cars for complete enjoyment. I think it's funny because I think you are telling some group or entity to kiss your ass with this video. Either way I love the enthusiasm and I appreciate you as you were the only dude on KZfaq that I talk to or watch regularly. Keep it up man and you will always succeed because you never needed anything but what you had to begin with.

I love the way it looks as is, well after the cut springs. It looks tough. I see that trick flow intake! Love everything from Trick Flow...heads injectors and tuners. Stock or Upgrade Camshaft?

Nice! I just bought the MM front spring install tool for reinstalling the factory springs.

This is a cool bud, Cutting the springs is the money way to go, better than the overrated lowering springs without spending money on springs and getting the stance that you want, another entertaining video.

If you are running full length headers with cut springs or lowering springs the headers will drag sometimes on speed bumps and different grades going into stores or business all depends where you drive your car

I'm restoring my 93 GT I have a LMR nose piece on it and I'm having trouble with my marker lights and turn signal lights fitting in the nose piece straight any suggestions on what to do the headlight set in good? I love your show you inspire me to keep working on my car thanks! 👍

Super cool info!

Nice job!!! I’ve been thinking about trying this, but I’m not sure what would happen with my SVO + 351w, on factory Koni SVO struts, & springs. Thoughts?

thanks for this video...ive spent money on springs and never totally happy

Nice Work matey 👍 Knowledge is NOT a burden hey 😜 Steve from Bundaberg Australia 🇦🇺 🍹🕺

Thank you!

New subscriber. Great video!

Love the pony wheels. Thanks bud

Great video, I like the pony wheels

Just watch Dan's new video of his dad's car speed density with a turbo is crazy and got down quick

Great video!

Fact. Cut springs ride a million times better than cheap springs. I rode both on my 240.

Loving the stance ......

Love the 17" Pony's. When you show how to line up the GT side skirts can you show how you fixed the pinch weld where it was jacked up?

Fox body quad shocks have no absolutely damping (the one that run front to back). I replaced them with Koni shocks, it was night and day difference, it was like having a Gorilla hold the rear end in place. Triple

Hey buddy hopefully you can answer my question I have a 05 mustang gt sits up like a truck can I cut 2 coils off and be ok and also do I cut both rear springs to match. Like 2 coils on each.

Did you leave the isolators off on the top and bottom? Both the front and rear? How does it ride after that? Also, how close is your exhaust to the ground?

Question how much would u take outta the spring if i put on sve 18x10 in the back and 18x8.5 in the front

Wow nice thank you for sharing this video sir

Stay blessed 🤘🏽

How did you straighten that fender. Mine pop so bad I been wanting to know how to make it flush with the door.

Did you take the isolator out on the rear when installing the springs back?

Thanks this is going to save me some money

Oje thing i don't understand is, if you cut the springs on a truck's front end, will you need to change or modify anytbing else?

thanks buddy really helpful video .. big Like and subs... 💪🏼👍🏻

Black wheels definitely like better.. ride height is perfect before the settling imo..i guess it would be ok to only cut 3/4 off the front spring if i wanted the height you have at the moment?

I did a coil and a half in the back… but it’s not level from compared to the front, it’s off about a inch, a little bit of rake. Can I cut more off and be safe for the rear?

Looking at cutting the springs in my AMC. The rear are squared at the top just like yours so i was concerned. Not really concerned now🍻

Those pony's be on point 👌

I had to cut the bolt off both sides of the top struts. How did yours just spin off? The inside twists, it did so on the new one as well, I had a terrible time with that. How did the one here just stay in place?

Brew2L have u ever cut rear springs (1coil on each) and had one side sit lower than the other side ? Happened to me and I was really confused.

Possible to cutt springs on a 2007 Toyota Sienna? Maybe for a three inch drop?

I love those five star ponies to!!!

Careful before attempting the front at home. I cut the exact same length and that spring was not going back in. End up having to get spring compression tool

Thsts how thehomies and i hsve fone it for tears we slways cut 1 coil off and that gives you like a 1.5" drop which imo is the perfect ride height. 👍

those 17-in ponys are money! 1 of my favorite Wheels they're going to look nasty on there!

Currently running eibach sport lines whicj was the biggest drop I could find. Still sits an inch too high

What purpose does the big weight @ 1:13 bolted to the rear end serve?

Good Video!!!

What's the measurement from the ground to the fender

I have full factory exhaust on my 89, mufflers are shot. At the beginning of this video you say the factory cats are worth a lot of money on eBay. Are they worth more than 'normal' cats? My exhaust guy wants to keep the old cats as part of our deal on my new system. This is normal for him, he's not trying to scam me. But I want to know if there's something special about these particular converters before giving them away. Thanks.

What's the minimum drop if we cut our springs?

I put UPR coil overs on the front of my ‘82 with cut coils in the rear. I love the ride height and the handling, but the squeaking of the coil overs is making we want to put cut coils on the front. What is the handing of the cut coils like compared to a coil over?

I'm disappointed Andrew... I thought you were on my side hating pony wheels 😂. At least they are 17s with a thick set in the rear...going for that stealth sleeper vibe. Like you said tho, any wheels looks good with the perfect stance 👌

love the channel! Question with 1 coil in front and 1.5 in rears without isos , what's the approx. drop? keep up the great vids!

I left my quad shocks on but turned around I like the ride.

That looks awesome! Id be afraid to go any lower myself….because Im an old fat man!

I have eibach pro kit and the struts on my car my car rides like a low rider 😡. I wish I done this to my stock springs!! I still have them maybe I will

What’s the best way to straighten the front fender out from where someone jacked on the pinch welds? My drivers side is bowed out a little from someone doing that

Cutting springs are easy.... look at the compressed and mark which coil to cut which lowers the car by the amount you want to lower by. Going to be bouncy since the part being cut are the softer progressive coils....

Can I cut springs on my 96 f150 ?

Great info bud! I went to a huge show this weekend and Met a few new Foxbody owners that know nothing about working on their cars or doing it themselves. One of the topics were cutting Springs and it just so happens you put this video out so I immediately sent it to them. Thanks for everything you do man, in a couple months I’m buying you a drink at Ford takeover 😉

How do I lower my 2007 Chevy Impala SS?

Unless you have a spring that is not symmetrical on both ends. Mine coils a little smaller on each end. Sucks, cause I can’t cut them. 😢😢😢

Would be awesome is they updated the pony R to 18inch ❤️

Factory cats are worth a few bucks now? If so, great I have 2-3 sets in my garage! I love the pony wheels! I wish they had them in 15x6 and 15x10 to fit the new tires on my car.

Nice 👍👍

Watching ya on the 75 inch while commenting on my cell phone

What about suspensions where the spring/shock tower is all one thing spring around the shock ?

Pony’s looking sweet. How long does it take on average to roll the quarters? I need to do mine.

How did you fix the pinch welds. Now it makes more sense way the finders are not lining up

I just seen a beautiful reto fox going down the 4 lane I wonder who's it was lol

You ever cut eibach’s? My new edge isn’t low enough and I’m considering cutting now 😬

Definitely doin this on my 86 vert cant wait

One important part i may have missed,so you cut this spring like you have.how much did it drop?im on the fence of ordering lowering springs or cutting my factory spring

My mercury zephyr (fairmont) broke 1 coil off the front springs when I pulled them off and it rode the same and sat so killer ! But got a deal for eihbac drag springs and threw them on car sits higher but rides real good and weight transfers good

i just about had an anyuerism from your daughter at the beginning i laughed so hard

Would you reccomend cutting the Ford B or C springs? I put a set on my car years ago, but I cant remember which set lol. Anyway, it's not low enough in the rear and I cannot find my factory springs anywhere. Just curious if I should or just find another set of oem.

When you say you cut your springs , your car rode about the same did you mean the same as the sport line or stock ride Quality

Nice

That 15$ MM tool for jacking the front spring back will help make it less sketch.

I cut springs on my Terminator to accomplish the perfect height and no sacrifice in ride quality.

1 inch on the springs is two inches on the body. Good rule of thumb
