Adaquate suspension travel?

[40plyrod]

I've just started to work on lowering the front suspension on my 40 sedan and after searching here and on the Hamb decided to go about this by moving the lower spring pocket from the top of the a-arm to the bottom (I had a spare to experiment on) The car ended up being as low as I wanted but I'm afraid there isn't enough suspension travel only 4 or so inches measured at the spindle nut. While I like how the car looks I don't want to risk my family's safety as well as those around me by bottoming out the suspension and having it break on top of having a car that handles terribly. It's not too late to turn back, should I just instead cut some of the coil? A Drop spindle from fatman would be nice but the costs to Canada are just too much plus I've made my own disc brake set and don't know how they would work together.

Cutting stock coils almost always makes the ride horrible. I've done this on 3-4 cars in my life, every time I wound up replacing the springs I ruined by cutting them. Better to find shorter springs with a better spring rate than cut the originals IMO....
