I just got Moog 6041's. How the heck should I cut em? I tryed a hacksaw but to no avail.

Should I just take em to a shop or what?

I think most people cut them with a torch, try your closest muffler shop.

Many a magazine article says not to cut with a torch, that it will ruin the heat treat.
Don't worry about it.
It only softens the last inch of the spring maybe 10%. I cut mine in 1974 and the end looks just like the day I cut it.

Just don't heat it excessively or anywhere else. Also protect a spring from weld spatter when welding on the car. That CAN cause a spring failure.
Cutting a spring is not a good way to set height on a camaro because the spring seats are tapered like the spring.
As you cut the spring shorter and shorter, the spring seat follows the spring so there is little change, UNTIL you get to around a full coil cut off and then it will drop into the pocket, then it will make a big difference.

You can also use a 14" chop saw if you have one or an angle grinder with a 1/16" cutoff wheel on it. pdq67
