I thought the whole reason Belltech designed their drop spindles the way they did (the slight offset of the actual hub spindle area), was to reduce rubbing on the inside at full lock? Been a while since that discussion so my memory might be fuzzy on it. When we're dealing with extreme static drops (any amount enough for a tire to rub) you're limited one direction or the other in terms of turning the wheel..Buy the React spindle then, they don't push them out...
I’m more concerned about the spindles pushing the wheels out…

I have some originals laying around I will try to measure them tomorrow they should be close enough for a comparison although I’m sure they have compressed a bit over the years.
The tighter coils are the softer region of the spring. If you cut that end it will stiffen the ride and you will have to cut more spring to get the desired height. Cutting the looser end will not change the the stiffness of the ride as much and you will have to cut less spring.
Sorry I cannot seem to find my old set of coils to measure. The garage is a mess! Judging by the looks of that picture, I’m gonna say cutting one coil off would net around 1.5-2” of drop. IMO I would cut half a coil and see what it does.
Done several trucks with the react spindle an they don't rub anywhere (except the inner on bumps lol).I thought the whole reason Belltech designed their drop spindles the way they did (the slight offset of the actual hub spindle area), was to reduce rubbing on the inside at full lock?
