Okay tonight I started to cut to install my River Beast Kustoms Shackle Inversion Kit (long name) well I have a 4" grinder with grinding disk (I am new to this sorry for incorrect terms and approch) It just doesn't seem to be doing the job that well.. In the instructions it also mentions the use of a angle grinder.... now I have seen a bunch around either complete tools or just the disks set up for a drill of sorts. Which is better will the drill version be able to handle this frame metal... or is the complete kit just a grinder with a cut off wheel? Or am I just taking a bad approach to this with the grinder? Thanks for any feedback.. sorry this is so very pathetic...

The best tool for any job is a Hammer :D .

To cut just get a cutting wheel for the 4" angle grinder. Works great in tight places. You can find them at any local hardware store.

Yeah, I agree with PC, if you use a grinding disk instead of a cutting disk, youll go through more grinding disks, plus it will not get in a very tight place.
