Remove Transmission crossmember "upper brackets"?

Is it possible to remove them and keep them out. They are in the way for where I would like to run exhaust. Will it be structurally unsafe, or can I ditch them?

You can ditch them.
Most aftermarket transmission crossmembers only use the bottom mounting location.
