half springs would be less than half of the weight wouldnt it huggie? lol no space to compress

So between the kings and stock are they thicker or just wound tighter wen made ? If so maybe a stock towing pack sping set could be cut back as they hold more wight.

Does that make sense?

And i do belive he does only meen to chop a single coil (if that)

Im thinking the general public out there is trying to say just dont cut them! Go out and spend the dollars on proper springs.... And im sure insurance wont cover chopped suspension components if you get into an accident....

There is no way I would be cutting springs. Lowered springs are so cheap now anyway. Don't know what sort of "mechanic" would even suggest it.
