I allways leave it on its wheels...
Measure the wheel to arch gap and find out what sorta drop i want.
Then get on the floor, Put the ruler against the compressed spring and see what i need to chop off.
Allways worked for me ;D

ok,thank you all juste cut springs because,this car is low cost,and it's not a sports car or collector,i will be the good thing if was it...no,no,it's my "utilitaire" so:low cost and if it was a good cut in the line of spires it's good this I was doing,but i have doing "the barbare",i have cut pink 1+2+3 i will be see the result,but i arrive at 70/80mm...may be is too...no i will be see...and i have other origine springs and absorber ;D for the rear,i think just 2 spires,because when i'm charge some peice or wheels into ,it's not good if the rear is lowess that front ok,thanks for the cutting lesson and... a bientot pour le reste et les photos et comme j'ai dit si je vois que c'est dangereux ou difficile au quotidien je reviens a l'origine,pas de problemes
