I'd rather get a spring length that doesnt require I cut the rod.

I run them on an M4. 8" 1300 pound spring. To run them without cutting them you're going to need a super short spring or you're going to have to run at monster truck height. I ended up adding a helper because the spring was loose under full droop but now the stack height is too tall and I can't get the rear ride height where I want it so I'm going to go to a 7" spring and it should be spot on.
As far as the weight jack itself is concerned its a really clever system. Height adjustment is super easy and cutting the rod was simple. I used a hand saw and vice and filed it smooth. Took maybe 30 minutes to get done. I can't think of a single way they can be improved, it's a great product.
