The heading gotcha, huh? I want my car a tad lower in the rear. I'm running Ford B springs. Would cutting 3/4 of a coil off lower it about an inch? Any ideas? I need her to go down.

Pull the springs and measure an inch up and find where that intercects with the bottom of the coil - mark and cut there - I'd imagine, as you did, it'll be around 3/4 - also know that compressed, it'll be a tad lower, so err on the 'cut less' side...you can always cut more, but...
Best of Luck!

That's how much I cut off of my "C" springs and it evened it out front to back.
