King Coilovers, Light Racing UCA, OME Dakar leafs w/ extra leaf and SB10" Bilstein 7100's and a U-bolt flip. 4.56's, eLocker rear, ARB front, Marlin rear bumper, ARB Bull Bar w/ Warn M8000. BAMF Sliders. Manual hub conversion with functioning ABS. Tundra front brakes. Manual hub conversion with functioning ABS. SCS F-5's w/ 255/85 Toyo MT's

I went from stock 16x7's to 16x8's w/ 4.5 BS and now I'm hitting the bumper on hard compression.

I need to trim my ARB Bullbar to make more room for my tires. Looks like I need to cut about 2 inches off the back end. I plan to remove the coil over so I can cycle the suspension to get a more precise measurement.

So how do I cut this thing without messing it up? I'm thinking angle grinder with a cutoff disc then touch up the exposed metal with rustoleum.

Anyone else have any suggestions or better ideas?
