I see them cut all the time, just leave a small stub sticking out so you don't weaken the web.

I just finished doing a high steer crossover on my dana 60 and thought about doing the same thing. I ended up leaving mine just in case I decide to sell the truck I can always convert it back and keep the crossover setup for another vehicle.

If I break my high steer ORD will be hearing from me LOL. Seems like even if you cut them they still look a little funny and unfinished.
