Re: Removing Trailing Arm Crossmember?

Since it doesn't appear that you are trying to save the crossmember you might think about trimming it down to more manageable pieces. Cut it so that all you are fighting are the rivets holding the top side to the top frame rail and go from there. Be careful though as a friend burned his shop down getting the floor of a truck he was working on too hot and caught the carpet on fire in it last week.

48 Chev 3100 that will run a 292 Six.
71 GMC 2500 that is getting a Cad 500 transplant.
77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
