    Matt, your genius talk confuses the **** out of me... That being said, why cut a coil at all with the HD springs at the lowest setting on shock?

    Because I want to run these on the lowest setting when i install the Superlift.

    The goal is to have an adjustable strut setup that nets ~3" lift on the highest setting and then can be adjusted down to ~1-1.5" when you install the superlift for a ~5.5" lift.

    If I just put the 5100s on the lowest setting and use HD springs, I won't have the ability to adjust them down at all. And when I go with the superlift i'd like to have a stiffer spring than stock, which is achieved by a cut OME MD spring.

    ..... and don't worry dude, I confuse the $(&% out of myself daily
