well first start with a thin grinding disk. dont get it thick. thinner is better in this case use saftey glasses also a hooded jacket because the sparks hits your hair/neck and stings. this way your eyes are fine and a hooded jacket protects most of your neck
get the die grinder and just cut along the edge making sure to get the spot weld and not go into the frame. just start from one end and start grinding on top of the welds
as you cut along the top weld you can stick like a fat flat head screw driver in to pry the welds apart and it also sometimes makes the welds crack so its easier to cut
in this pic you can see that the welds dont go all teh way threw. when you finish the front just cut one edge on the left. you will have to turn the die grinder to the side watch out for the sparks. when you cut the side you can stick in a flat head screwdriver or a pry bar to get some more space
now here what it looks like from underneath. most of the times i just get liquid nails and some rubber and glue them together and put them on the bottom of the frame. this truck i did today was a 01 zq8 wiith a 2 3 drop and back was very bad but now it rides smooth. so try it out and you'll be happy.
Thankkkkkkk you man! I've cut the bumpstops already and I'm still bottoming out. I've got the exact same drop as that truck on my 01 Noma. Time for me to :bash: those basturds outta there!:evilg: :scary: :bash:
when he cut mine off this past weekend, the steps are almost exact, and mine look the same. but my dad wasnt wearing long pants and a sweater, so he ended up with many metal splinters in his legs and hands. which i feel bad about because he was doing me a favor, while i was at work.
