I cut 1.5 coils with an electric die grinder. The left and right have different part numbers. Here is the cut and uncut:
Before the rear was at almost 40":
After reassembly the rear is about 38":
Before:
After:
I would say it dropped about 1.75", but will probably level out more since I only have 500 miles on it. I've had it for 8 days and haven't even been able to was it yet (obviously), due to it being 35F outside.
