Removing front crossmember - questions - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hey guys,
I would like to pull the front cross member out of my truck....
The engine & transmission is out, what is the easiest/safest way to accomplish this?

It is pretty much stipped down to just the
crossmember, wheels are still on at this time.
Do I need to put the motor back in to do this, the main reason, is I want to replace all the suspention components, upper/lower
shafts and ball joints. And do some cleaning
while I am at it. Thanks.
