You knew it was just too good to last. Anything wrong with me just blowing out some more rivets and just moving this this back 4 or 5 inches?

I'd tack a couple bars across the frame before I cut the rivets out. once I was working on a toyota with a buddy and we had a 1x1 clamped to the rear framerail, he reached for the clamp to release it and I said "wait..." he said "for what?" and took it off. the 1x1 was the only crossmember all the way to the trans and the frame went BOING, lifted the right rail up at least a foot.

I moved the one on my suburban build to clear the fuel tank, you should have no problem, just put a temp. cross brace as joedoh mentioned.

Thanks guys - I was hoping you would say that - and yeah the yard looks pretty in the picture but what you don't see if you pan right is the pile of mulch taking up half the drive that I didn't feel like shoveling around this weekend :lol:
