Then sliced the xmember in half with a sawsall to make it easier to remove. It was not fun bit I got it out. I dont know if yours was a 6? but I think they mounted back farther back one hole making it even more of a pain!
Thanks for the info and pics; but mine is a 67 so it's under the cab at the back rivets...that and I will need to dimple the frame when I add power steering.....
