1963 - 3/4 speed Trans Crossmember Removal - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I need to remove the factory 3/4 speed trans frame crossmember from a 63. Looks like it's held in with about 6 rivets that possibly were salvaged from the Titanic. I'm converting to a factory column shift Powerglide, was a floor shift when I got the truck. I have the aftermarket trans crossmember under the rear of the glide, so I'm assuming I can remove the stick crossmember without losing any strength integrity. I also have accumulated all the correct linkage. Anyone know the best/easiest way to remove this crossmember ?

Thanks
Greg
