Just saying HI. Been out of the f-bodies for awhile. Working at getting an LS1 Trans Am project going. Good to be back. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

If the two sides are uneven, Try re-indexing the coils before you cut it again. Rotating the coils on the perches can change the ride height slightly. If you get the right combination on each side, you may be able to level the car without ending up with different spring rates on each side. Maybe even try swaping sides to see what the result is. Cutting coils will change the rate of the spring.

BTW, the car looks great and seems to be coming along well.
