Hello, first time posting here. My apologies if I'm asking something that's been asked before but I'm not finding any concrete answers when I search. I've got a 78 1/2 ton GMC SWB I've recently started fixing up a bit. Here's my problem. I ordered and installed a DJM 3/5 lowering kit, which consist of the DJM tubular lower control arms in front and a flip kit in the rear. After installing the front and rear components my front sits slightly under 2 inches taller in the front. I'd be content with the truck just sitting level. With the control arms I've used I assume that cutting a little of my coils would be not a good option because there potentially could be issues with bottoming out with the shorter spring. Am I correct on that or could I possibly cut a little off the coils and not have any issues? If that isn't a viable option could I add a leaf to the rear spring pack to get the rear up a little bit to level the truck out? Thanks in advance.
