locogato11283 Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 That doesnt really fix it. It doesnt matter if you cut it off. If a spring is compressed by 50 lbs of pressure cutting coils off just shortens the spring. It will still take 50 lbs of pressure to compress. You need a spring that is made up of thinner wire, and has less tension. If you needed your shocks softer you can't just cut a coil off. It will just make it bottom out faster, lower the ride hight, it will still be just as stiff. sure it does. as the spring compresses the more pressure it forms. by cutting a couple of loops off you lose some of the pressure thats causing the resistance. this absolutely works and ive done it on 33, 35 and 39mm pwk with great success each time. cutting the springs works very good. just dont cut too much off agreed. 2 coils is just right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
