Are you kidding me??? what do we cut springs with??? I've NEVER seen anybody cut them with the gas axe, and thats about the only way you'd get enough heat into them to affect the spring steel, even then if you knew how to work it, you might not get enough heat into the spring to affect it.

 

if you chop them with a cut off wheel on an angle grinder it will NEVER heat the spring enough to soften it. You ONLY cut a bit out of the END anyway.

 

But do feel free to spread anything you like all over the internet, it keeps it fun trying to work out myth from truth.

i was only going by what i have been told. and that one of my mates cut the king springs in the back of his vl wagon and over time they started to sag. i was told that if i was to cut springs to make sure you cut through quick and to only do it once so they don't heat up to much. i stand corrected. i was not trying to spread myth's just trying to help out in what i was once told was true. thankyou for correcting me. now i've learnt something new :2thumbs:
