Frame cut bumper: Cut-off wheel or Sawzall?

[The Car Stereo Company]

his best bet is a cordless dremel with the 2 inch disc. most accurate cuts that way

 

[Gorzz]

Wheel, all the way. Specific metal wheel wil be not only accurate but save time. Had both horns cut off in less than 20min, finished off with a bit of filling. Perfecto!

I may be biased but I definitely think you need an SVC bumper...

NO Jeff is NEVER Bias! But I think the SVC is the one to use! Good luck on the cut.

Ive done Plasma, sawzall and a wheel.
I prefer the Cut Off wheel with a diamond tip wheel vs the abrasive compound disks.

angle grinder 100%. if you're comfortable try and use a 7" cutting disc, makes easy work of it

7" is big on a 4 1/2" grinder, you're better off with 6"

Of course you’d think 6” is good enough

Yes, of course, she's just a little thing !!

Curious as to what guys are doing for engine skid plates when they are doing frame cut bumpers as the stock engine skid hangs down a bit and it doesn't line up with the bottom of the bumper skid plate cleanly.

I cut about 1/4 of an inch off mine. Fits fine
