I have trd springs and i love them so much and i would never cut them!!! But theres this car event coming and wanna take my car slammed for ONE day.. i repeat 1 day.. so i would put cut springs ( factory ones) and after that day i will put back my trds!!, I dont care about changing springs 2 times in a week cuz i have acces to a massive shop full of tools!

OK got it!!!

Use a grinder with cutting discs, the better the quality of the discs the easier but you'll go through several. Then grind a flat spot. Your best to cut the comfort end so they won't sag too much. Comfort end is usually where the coil is not wound so tight.

After all it's just for static use at a car show.
