Ok, heres the deal. I used new iso's all the way around. Top and bottom. I do not want to remove them either. The instructiions that came with the springs said to "cut" them if you are not happy witht the look so I assume ford racing has done there homework and its ok to cut the rear springs. I can get 2 fingers between the front wheel well and tire and 4 fingers in the rear. I guess thats about an inch difference. How much do i cut off the rears and how. If i cut them then i will be losing the flat spot on the top of the springs which will suck. Here are pictures of the springs, so maybe someone could put them in "paint" and put a line on where about i sould cut the springs to lower the car in the rear another inch. Thanks
